Sean Christopherson 9a798b1337 KVM: Register cpuhp and syscore callbacks when enabling hardware ... Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callback when enabling virtualization in hardware instead of registering the callbacks during initialization, and let the CPU up/down framework invoke the inner enable/disable functions. Registering the callbacks during initialization makes things more complex than they need to be, as KVM needs to be very careful about handling races between enabling CPUs being onlined/offlined and hardware being enabled/disabled. Intel TDX support will require KVM to enable virtualization during KVM initialization, i.e. will add another wrinkle to things, at which point sorting out the potential races with kvm_usage_count would become even more complex. Note, using the cpuhp framework has a subtle behavioral change: enabling will be done serially across all CPUs, whereas KVM currently sends an IPI to all CPUs in parallel. While serializing virtualization enabling could create undesirable latency, the issue is limited to the 0=>1 transition of VM creation. And even that can be mitigated, e.g. by letting userspace force virtualization to be enabled when KVM is initialized.
