KVM: PPC: Protect kvm_vcpu_read_guest with srcu locks
The kvm_vcpu_read_guest/kvm_vcpu_write_guest used for nested guests
eventually call srcu_dereference_check to dereference a memslot and
lockdep produces a warning as neither kvm->slots_lock nor
kvm->srcu lock is held and kvm->users_count is above zero (>100 in fact).
This wraps mentioned VCPU read/write helpers in srcu read lock/unlock as
it is done in other places. This uses vcpu->srcu_idx when possible.
These helpers are only used for nested KVM so this may explain why
we did not see these before.
Here is an example of a warning:
=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
5.7.0-rc3-le_dma-bypass.3.2_a+fstn1 #897 Not tainted
-----------------------------
include/linux/kvm_host.h:633 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!
other info that might help us debug this:
rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
