At the moment, we only save/restore lr if on VHE, as we rely only
the EL1 code to have preserved it in the non-VHE case.
As we're about to get rid of the latter, let's move the save/restore
code to the do_el2_call macro, unifying both code paths.

When entering the kernel hyp stub, we check whether or not we've
made it here through an HVC instruction, clobbering lr (aka x30)
in the process.
This is completely pointless, as HVC is the only way to get here
(all traps to EL2 are disabled, no interrupt override is applied).
So let's remove this bit of code whose only point is to corrupt
a valuable register.

We currently assume that all the interrupts in our AP list will be

thread itself can remove interrupts from its AP list.
Therefore, slightly change the logic to only setting the underflow

tg_pt_gp_alua_pending_state and the tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state would
not get updated with the second calls state.
2. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt could be setting
tg_pt_gp_transition_complete while the tg_pt_gp_transition_work
is already completing. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt then waits on the
completion that will never be called.
To handle these issues, we just call flush_work which will return when
core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work has completed so there is no need
to do the complete/wait. And, if core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work
was running, instead of trying to sneak in the state change, we just
schedule up another core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work call.
Note that this does not handle a possible race where there are multiple

core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work->core_alua_update_tpg_primary_metadata
needs to write out info to a remote file, then the initiator can
easily time out the operation.

If tcmu-runner is processing a STPG and needs to change the kernel's
ALUA state then we cannot use the same work queue for task management
requests and ALUA transitions, because we could deadlock. The problem
occurs when a STPG times out before tcmu-runner is able to
call into target_tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state_store->
core_alua_do_port_transition -> core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt ->
queue_work. In this case, the tmr is on the work queue waiting for
the STPG to complete, but the STPG transition is now queued behind
the waiting tmr.
Note:
This bug will also be fixed by this patch:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/target-devel/msg14560.html
which switches the tmr code to use the system workqueues.
For both, I am not sure if we need a dedicated workqueue since
it is not a performance path and I do not think we need WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
to make forward progress to free up memory like the block layer does.
