Re: [PATCH 03/22] kvm: mmu: Init / Uninit the TDP MMU

[Sean Christopherson]

Nit on all the shortlogs, can you use "KVM: x86/mmu" instead of "kvm: mmu"?

Do y'all actually toggle tdp_mmu_enabled while VMs are running?  I can see
having a per-VM capability, or a read-only module param, but a writable
module param is... interesting.

This should be enforced, i.e. clear tdp_mmu_enabled if !tdp_enabled.  As is,
it's a user triggerable WARN, which is not good, e.g. with PANIC_ON_WARN.
