[PATCH v5 2/5] KVM: MMU: properly check last spte in fast_page_fault()

From: Xiao Guangrong
Date: Thu Apr 17 2014 - 05:06:08 EST


Using sp->role.level instead of @level since @level is not got from the
page table hierarchy

There is no issue in current code since the fast page fault currently only
fixes the fault caused by dirty-log that is always on the last level
(level = 1)

This patch makes the code more readable and avoids potential issue in the
further development
