[PATCH 2/2] KVM: SVM: drop useless cpumask_test_cpu() in pre_sev_run()
From: Yury Norov
Date: Mon Aug 11 2025 - 16:32:15 EST
Testing cpumask for a CPU to be cleared just before setting the exact
same CPU is useless because the end result is always the same: CPU is
set.
While there, switch CPU setter to a non-atomic version. Atomicity is
useless here because sev_writeback_caches() ends up with a plain
for_each_cpu() loop in smp_call_function_many_cond(), which is not
atomic by nature.
Fixes: 6f38f8c57464 ("KVM: SVM: Flush cache only on CPUs running SEV guest")
