[PATCH 00/12] iommu/vt-d: Optimize the use of locks

[Lu Baolu <baolu.lu@linux.intel.com>]

Hi folks,

This series tries to optimize the uses of two locks in the Intel IOMMU
driver:

- The intel_iommu::lock is used to protect the IOMMU resources shared by
  devices. They include the IOMMU root and context tables, the pasid
  tables and the domain IDs.
- The global device_domain_lock is used to protect the global and the
  per-domain device tracking lists.

The optimization includes:

- Remove the unnecessary global device tracking list;
- Remove unnecessary locking;
- Reduce the scope of the lock as much as possible, that is, use the
  lock only where necessary;
- The global lock is transformed into a local lock to improve the
  efficiency. 
- Convert spinlock into mutex so that non-critical functions could be
  called when the lock is held.

This series is also available on github:

Your comments and suggestions are very appreciated.

Best regards,
baolu
