Commit aee98a6838 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Use try_cmpxchg64 in
tdp_mmu_set_spte_atomic") removed the comment that iter->old_spte is
updated when different logical CPU modifies the page table entry.
Although this is what try_cmpxchg does implicitly, it won't hurt
if this fact is explicitly mentioned in a restored comment.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
