KVM: s390: Fix lockdep issue in vm memop
Issuing a memop on a protected vm does not make sense, neither is the memory readable/writable, nor does it make sense to check storage keys. This is why the ioctl will return -EINVAL when it detects the vm to be protected. However, in order to ensure that the vm cannot become protected during the memop, the kvm->lock would need to be taken for the duration of the ioctl. This is also required because kvm_s390_pv_is_protected asserts that the lock must be held. Instead, don't try to prevent this. If user space enables secure execution concurrently with a memop it must accecpt the possibility of the memop failing. Still check if the vm is currently protected, but without locking and consider it a heuristic.
