x86: prevent PGE flush from interruption/preemption
CR4 manipulation is not protected against interrupts and preemption, but KVM uses smp_function_call to manipulate the X86_CR4_VMXE bit either from the CPU hotplug code or from the kvm_init call. We need to protect the CR4 manipulation from both interrupts and preemption. Original bug report: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/7/48 Bugzilla entry: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10642 This is not a regression from 2.6.25, it's a long standing and hard to trigger bug.
