[PATCH v3 7/9] x86/kvm/nVMX: introduce source data cache for kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu()
From: Vitaly Kuznetsov
Date: Mon Oct 01 2018 - 10:20:56 EST
MMU re-initialization is expensive, in particular,
update_permission_bitmask() and update_pkru_bitmask() are.
Cache the data used to setup shadow EPT MMU and avoid full re-init when
it is unchanged.
Signed-off-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@xxxxxxxxxx>

Changes since v2:
- Preserve mmu_role.base in kvm_calc_shadow_ept_root_page_role()
[Sean Christopherson]
- Rename kvm_calc_mmu_role_common() -> kvm_calc_mmu_role_ext() to
support the change.
