    KVM: Get rid of KVM_REQ_KICK · d94e1dc9
    Avi Kivity authored
    KVM_REQ_KICK poisons vcpu->requests by having a bit set during normal
    operation.  This causes the fast path check for a clear vcpu->requests
    to fail all the time, triggering tons of atomic operations.
    
    Fix by replacing KVM_REQ_KICK with a vcpu->guest_mode atomic.
