[PATCH v3 06/21] KVM: x86/mmu: Move fast_page_fault() call above mmu_topup_memory_caches()

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Thu Jul 02 2020 - 22:37:20 EST


Avoid refilling the memory caches and potentially slow reclaim/swap when
handling a fast page fault, which does not need to allocate any new
objects.
