[PATCH 1/7] KVM: MMU: correct the behavior of mmu_spte_update_no_track

From: guangrong . xiao
Date: Wed May 03 2017 - 06:53:37 EST


From: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Current behavior of mmu_spte_update_no_track() does not match
the name of _no_track() as actually the A/D bits are tracked
and returned to the caller

This patch introduces the real _no_track() function to update
the spte regardless of A/D bits and rename the original function
to _track()

The _no_track() function will be used by later patches to update
upper spte which need not care of A/D bits indeed
