[PATCH 09/11] KVM: x86/mmu: Revert "KVM: x86/mmu: Remove is_obsolete() call"

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Thu Sep 12 2019 - 22:46:32 EST


Now that the fast invalidate mechanism has been reintroduced, restore
the performance tweaks for fast invalidation that existed prior to its
removal.

Paraphrasing the original changelog (commit 5ff0568374ed2 was itself a
partial revert):

Don't force reloading the remote mmu when zapping an obsolete page, as
a MMU_RELOAD request has already been issued by kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast()
immediately after incrementing mmu_valid_gen, i.e. after marking pages
obsolete.

This reverts commit 5ff0568374ed2e585376a3832857ade5daccd381.
