[PATCH v3 7/7] KVM: remove KVM_REQ_UNHALT

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Mon Aug 22 2022 - 13:07:15 EST


KVM_REQ_UNHALT is now unnecessary because it is replaced by the return
value of kvm_vcpu_block/kvm_vcpu_halt. Remove it.

No functional change intended.

- This request may be made from the KVM common function kvm_vcpu_block(),

- received (determined by checking kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable()). When that
- event or interrupt arrives kvm_vcpu_block() makes the request. This is

-Clearing Requests
------------------
-
-Generally it only makes sense for the receiving VCPU thread to clear a
-request. However, in some circumstances, such as when the requesting
-thread and the receiving VCPU thread are executed serially, such as when
-they are the same thread, or when they are using some form of concurrency
-control to temporarily execute synchronously, then it's possible to know
-that the request may be cleared immediately, rather than waiting for the
-receiving VCPU thread to handle the request in VCPU RUN. The only current
-examples of this are kvm_vcpu_block() calls made by VCPUs to block
-themselves. A possible side-effect of that call is to make the
-KVM_REQ_UNHALT request, which may then be cleared immediately when the
-VCPU returns from the call.
