Explicitly set @writable to false in try_async_pf() if the GFN->PFN
translation is short-circuited due to the requested GFN not being
visible to L2.
Leaving @writable ('map_writable' in the callers) uninitialized is ok
in that it's never actually consumed, but one has to track it all the
way through set_spte() being short-circuited by set_mmio_spte() to
understand that the uninitialized variable is benign, and relying on
@writable being ignored is an unnecessary risk. Explicitly setting
@writable also aligns try_async_pf() with __gfn_to_pfn_memslot().

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.
