Roger Pau Monne f6003784b1 hvc/xen: lock console list traversal
[ Upstream commit c0dccad87c ]

The currently lockless access to the xen console list in
vtermno_to_xencons() is incorrect, as additions and removals from the
list can happen anytime, and as such the traversal of the list to get
the private console data for a given termno needs to happen with the
lock held.  Note users that modify the list already do so with the
lock taken.

Adjust current lock takers to use the _irq{save,restore} helpers,
since the context in which vtermno_to_xencons() is called can have
interrupts disabled.  Use the _irq{save,restore} set of helpers to
switch the current callers to disable interrupts in the locked region.
I haven't checked if existing users could instead use the _irq
variant, as I think it's safer to use _irq{save,restore} upfront.

While there switch from using list_for_each_entry_safe to
list_for_each_entry: the current entry cursor won't be removed as
part of the code in the loop body, so using the _safe variant is
pointless.
