Cédric Le Goater aedb5b1942 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: XIVE: Take the srcu read lock when accessing memslots
According to Documentation/virtual/kvm/locking.txt, the srcu read lock
should be taken when accessing the memslots of the VM. The XIVE KVM
device needs to do so when configuring the page of the OS event queue
of vCPU for a given priority and when marking the same page dirty
before migration.

This avoids warnings such as :

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
