[PATCH v4 11/11] KVM: x86/mmu: Stop needlessly making MMU pages available for TDP MMU

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Wed Oct 12 2022 - 14:18:41 EST


From: David Matlack <dmatlack@xxxxxxxxxx>

Stop calling make_mmu_pages_available() when handling TDP MMU faults and
when allocating TDP MMU roots. The TDP MMU does not participate in the
"available MMU pages" tracking and limiting so calling this function is
unnecessary work when handling TDP MMU faults.

[sean: apply to root allocation too]
