[PATCH 1/2] KVM: X86: Check pte present first in __shadow_walk_next()

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Thu Aug 12 2021 - 10:21:37 EST


From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

So far, the loop bodies already ensure the pte is present before calling
__shadow_walk_next(). But checking pte present in __shadow_walk_next()
is a more prudent way of programing and loop bodies will not need
to always check it. It allows us removing is_shadow_present_pte()
in the loop bodies.
