David Matlack 3d30bfcbdc KVM: x86/mmu: Stop kicking vCPUs to sync the dirty log when PML is disabled
Stop kicking vCPUs in kvm_arch_sync_dirty_log() when PML is disabled.
Kicking vCPUs when PML is disabled serves no purpose and could
negatively impact guest performance.

This restores KVM's behavior to prior to 5.12 commit a018eba538 ("KVM:
x86: Move MMU's PML logic to common code"), which replaced a
static_call_cond(kvm_x86_flush_log_dirty) with unconditional calls to
kvm_vcpu_kick().

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.
