[PATCH v7 10/23] KVM: x86/mmu: Pass memory caches to allocate SPs separately

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Wed Jun 22 2022 - 15:28:46 EST


From: David Matlack <dmatlack@xxxxxxxxxx>

Refactor kvm_mmu_alloc_shadow_page() to receive the caches from which it
will allocate the various pieces of memory for shadow pages as a
parameter, rather than deriving them from the vcpu pointer. This will be
useful in a future commit where shadow pages are allocated during VM
ioctls for eager page splitting, and thus will use a different set of
caches.

Preemptively pull the caches out all the way to
kvm_mmu_get_shadow_page() since eager page splitting will not be calling
kvm_mmu_alloc_shadow_page() directly.

No functional change intended.
