[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/7] hw/mips_int: hold BQL for all interrupt requests

[Aleksandar Markovic <aleksandar.markovic@rt-rk.com>]

From: Miodrag Dinic <miodrag.dinic@mips.com>

Make sure BQL is held for all interrupt requests.

For MTTCG-enabled configurations, handling soft and hard interrupts
between vCPUs must be properly locked. By acquiring BQL, make sure
all paths triggering an IRQ are synchronized.
