[PATCH] KVM: x86/mmu: Remove spurious TLB flushes in TDP MMU zap collapsible path

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Wed Nov 17 2021 - 11:53:57 EST


Drop the "flush" param and return values to/from the TDP MMU's helper for
zapping collapsible SPTEs. Because the helper runs with mmu_lock held
for read, not write, it uses tdp_mmu_zap_spte_atomic(), and the atomic
zap handles the necessary remote TLB flush.

Similarly, because mmu_lock is dropped and re-acquired between zapping
legacy MMUs and zapping TDP MMUs, kvm_mmu_zap_collapsible_sptes() must
handle remote TLB flushes from the legacy MMU before calling into the TDP
MMU.

Opportunistically drop the local "flush" variable in the common helper.
