[PATCH v4.1 2/2] xen/evtchn: rework per event channel lock



Currently the lock for a single event channel needs to be taken with
interrupts off, which causes deadlocks in some cases.

Rework the per event channel lock to be non-blocking for the case of
sending an event and removing the need for disabling interrupts for
taking the lock.

The lock is needed for avoiding races between event channel state
changes (creation, closing, binding) against normal operations (set
pending, [un]masking, priority changes).

Use a rwlock, but with some restrictions:

- normal operations use read_trylock(), in case of not obtaining the
  lock the operation is omitted or a default state is returned

- closing an event channel is using write_lock(), with ASSERT()ing that
  the lock is taken as writer only when the state of the event channel
  is either before or after the locked region appropriate (either free
  or unbound).

Fixes: e045199c7c9c54 ("evtchn: address races with evtchn_reset()")

V4.1:
- corrected comment about lock discipline

V4:
- switch to rwlock
- add ASSERT() to verify correct write_lock() usage

V3:
- corrected a copy-and-paste error (Jan Beulich)
- corrected unlocking in two cases (Jan Beulich)
- renamed evtchn_read_trylock() (Jan Beulich)
- added some comments and an ASSERT() for evtchn_write_lock()
- set EVENT_WRITE_LOCK_INC to INT_MIN

V2:
- added needed barriers
