[PATCH v2 1/4] KVM: x86/mmu: remove unnecessary "bool shared" argument from functions

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Sat Nov 25 2023 - 03:34:18 EST


Neither tdp_mmu_next_root nor kvm_tdp_mmu_put_root need to know
if the lock is taken for read or write. Either way, protection
is achieved via RCU and tdp_mmu_pages_lock. Remove the argument
and just assert that the lock is taken.
