Kai Huang ff76d50603 KVM: x86/mmu: Avoid unnecessary page table allocation in kvm_tdp_mmu_map()
In kvm_tdp_mmu_map(), while iterating TDP MMU page table entries, it is
possible SPTE has already been frozen by another thread but the frozen
is not done yet, for instance, when another thread is still in middle of
zapping large page.  In this case, the !is_shadow_present_pte() check
for old SPTE in tdp_mmu_for_each_pte() may hit true, and in this case
allocating new page table is unnecessary since tdp_mmu_set_spte_atomic()
later will return false and page table will need to be freed.  Add
is_removed_spte() check before allocating new page table to avoid this.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
