Subject[PATCH v3 4/7] x86/sev-es: Run #VC handler in plain IRQ state
Date
From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de>

Use irqentry_enter() and irqentry_exit() to track the runtime state of
the #VC handler. The reason it ran in NMI mode was solely to make sure
nothing interrupts the handler while the GHCB is in use.

This is handled now in sev_es_get/put_ghcb() directly, so there is no
reason the #VC handler can not run in normal IRQ mode and enjoy the
benefits like being able to send signals.

Fixes: 62441a1fb532 ("x86/sev-es: Correctly track IRQ states in runtime #VC handler")
