Deadlock in x86 HVM standard VGA handling

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The hypervisor contains code to accelerate VGA memory accesses for HVM guests, when the virtual VGA is in "standard" mode. Locking involved there has an unusual discipline, leaving a lock acquired past the return from the function that acquired it. This behavior results in a...
