vfio-ccw: protect the I/O region
Introduce a mutex to disallow concurrent reads or writes to the I/O region. This makes sure that the data the kernel or user space see is always consistent. The same mutex will be used to protect the async region as well. Reviewed-by: Eric Farman <farman@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Cornelia Huck <cohuck@redhat.com>
