It was introduced in commit ab129972c8b41e15b0521895a46fd9c752b68a5e,
with the following motivation:
Because start_exclusive uses CPU_FOREACH, merge exclusive_lock with
qemu_cpu_list_lock: together with a call to exclusive_idle (via
cpu_exec_start/end) in cpu_list_add, this protects exclusive work
against concurrent CPU addition and removal.
However, it seems to be redundant, because the cpu-exclusive
infrastructure provides suffificent protection against the newly added
CPU starting execution while the cpu-exclusive work is running, and the
aforementioned traversing of the cpu list is protected by
qemu_cpu_list_lock.
Besides, this appears to be the only place where the cpu-exclusive
section is entered with the BQL taken, which has been found to trigger
AB-BA deadlock as follows:
vCPU thread main thread
----------- -----------
async_safe_run_on_cpu(self,
async_synic_update)
... [cpu hot-add]
process_queued_cpu_work()
qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread()
[grab BQL]
start_exclusive() cpu_list_add()
async_synic_update() finish_safe_work()
qemu_mutex_lock_iothread() cpu_exec_start()
So remove it. This paves the way to establishing a strict nesting rule
of never entering the exclusive section with the BQL taken.

The new definition of QTAILQ does not require passing the headname,

Iterating over the list without using atomics is undefined behaviour,
since the list can be modified concurrently by other threads (e.g.
every time a new thread is created in user-mode).
Fix it by implementing the CPU list as an RCU QTAILQ. This requires
a little bit of extra work to traverse list in reverse order (see
previous patch), but other than that the conversion is trivial.

This changes the *_run_on_cpu APIs (and helpers) to pass data in a
run_on_cpu_data type instead of a plain void *. This is because we
sometimes want to pass a target address (target_ulong) and this fails on
32 bit hosts emulating 64 bit guests.

Set cpu->running without taking the cpu_list lock, only requiring it if
there is a concurrent exclusive section. This requires adding a new
field to CPUState, which records whether a running CPU is being counted
in pending_cpus.
When an exclusive section is started concurrently with cpu_exec_start,
cpu_exec_start can use the new field to determine if it has to wait for
the end of the exclusive section. Likewise, cpu_exec_end can use it to
see if start_exclusive is waiting for that CPU.
This a separate patch for easier bisection of issues.

It is not necessary to hold qemu_cpu_list_mutex throughout the
exclusive section, because no other exclusive section can run
while pending_cpus != 0.
exclusive_idle() is called in cpu_exec_start(), and that prevents
any CPUs created after start_exclusive() from entering cpu_exec()
during an exclusive section.

No need to call exclusive_idle() from cpu_exec_end since it is done
immediately afterwards in cpu_exec_start. Any exclusive section could
run as soon as cpu_exec_end leaves, because cpu->running is false and the
mutex is not taken, so the call does not add any protection either.

async_run_on_cpu is only called from the I/O thread, not from CPU threads,
so it doesn't make any difference. It will make a difference however
for async_safe_run_on_cpu.
