[PATCH v2 0/2] KVM: MMU: fix kvm_is_mmio_pfn()

[Haozhong Zhang]

[I just copy the commit message from patch 2]

Some reserved pages, such as those from NVDIMM DAX devices, are
not for MMIO, and can be mapped with cached memory type for better
performance. However, the above check misconceives those pages as
MMIO.  Because KVM maps MMIO pages with UC memory type, the
performance of guest accesses to those pages would be harmed.
Therefore, we check the host memory type by lookup_memtype() in
addition and only treat UC/UC- pages as MMIO.

Changes in v2:
 * Switch to lookup_memtype() to get host memory type.
 * Rewrite the comment in KVM MMU patch.
 * Remove v1 patch 2, which is not necessary in v2.
