[PATCH V2 6/7] KVM: X86/MMU: Allocate mmu->pae_root for PAE paging on-demand

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Tue May 03 2022 - 11:07:53 EST


From: Lai Jiangshan <jiangshan.ljs@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

mmu->pae_root for non-PAE paging is allocated on-demand, but
mmu->pae_root for PAE paging is allocated early when struct kvm_mmu is
being created.

Simplify the code to allocate mmu->pae_root for PAE paging and make
it on-demand.
