Paolo Bonzini 2f303b74a6 KVM: Convert kvm_lock back to non-raw spinlock
In commit e935b8372c ("KVM: Convert kvm_lock to raw_spinlock"),
the kvm_lock was made a raw lock.  However, the kvm mmu_shrink()
function tries to grab the (non-raw) mmu_lock within the scope of
the raw locked kvm_lock being held.  This leads to the following:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/rtmutex.c:659

Preemption disabled at:[<ffffffffa0376eac>] mmu_shrink+0x5c/0x1b0 [kvm]

After the previous patch, kvm_lock need not be a raw spinlock anymore,
so change it back.

Paolo Bonzini 4a937f96f3 KVM: protect kvm_usage_count with its own spinlock
The VM list need not be protected by a raw spinlock.  Separate the
two so that kvm_lock can be made non-raw.
