From c972f3b125d8818748429b94cd2e59f473943a33 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takuya Yoshikawa Date: Tue, 8 Jan 2013 19:43:28 +0900 Subject: KVM: Write protect the updated slot only when dirty logging is enabled Calling kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access() for a deleted slot does nothing but search for non-existent mmu pages which have mappings to that deleted memory; this is safe but a waste of time. Since we want to make the function rmap based in a later patch, in a manner which makes it unsafe to be called for a deleted slot, we makes the caller see if the slot is non-zero and being dirty logged.
