Move the check that restricts mapping huge pages into the guest to pfns that are backed by refcounted 'struct page' memory into the helper that actually "requires" a 'struct page', host_pfn_mapping_level(). In addition to deduplicating code, moving the check to the helper eliminates the subtle requirement that the caller check that the incoming pfn is backed by a refcounted struct page, and as an added bonus avoids an extra pfn_to_page() lookup. Note, the is_error_noslot_pfn() check in kvm_mmu_hugepage_adjust() needs to stay where it is, as it guards against dereferencing a NULL memslot in the kvm_slot_dirty_track_enabled() that follows. No functional change intended. Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Message-Id: <20220429010416.2788472-11-seanjc@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
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.
