(Re-sending the reply as the previous one was formatted as HTML and
was blocked by many lists)

No particular reason per say, but I was just going with the logic of
determining if we need to defer the flush and the WARN_ON() parts
separate.
Any advantage if we directly check in stage2_unmap_put_pte() that I
missed or is this purely for readability?

Ah, yes. I'll adjust this if I send out a v8.

Thank you.
