mainlining shenanigans
6c1b7521f4
We are about to distinguish between userspace accesses and mmio traps for a number of the mmio handlers. When the requester vcpu is NULL, it means we are handling a userspace access. Factor out the functionality to get the request vcpu into its own function, mostly so we have a common place to document the semantics of the return value. Also take the chance to move the functionality outside of holding a spinlock and instead explicitly disable and enable preemption. This supports PREEMPT_RT kernels as well.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
