Re: [PATCH 5/9] KVM: MMU: fask check write-protect for direct mmu

[Xiao Guangrong]

BTW, they are some bug fix patches on -master branch, but
it is not existed on -next branch:
commit: f411930442e01f9cf1bf4df41ff7e89476575c4d
commit: 85b7059169e128c57a3a8a3e588fb89cb2031da1

It causes code conflict if we do the development on -next.
