[PATCH 3/3] KVM: x86/mmu: Move lpage_disallowed_link further "down" in kvm_mmu_page

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Wed Sep 01 2021 - 18:10:42 EST


Move "lpage_disallowed_link" out of the first 64 bytes, i.e. out of the
first cache line, of kvm_mmu_page so that "spt" and to a lesser extent
"gfns" land in the first cache line. "lpage_disallowed_link" is accessed
relatively infrequently compared to "spt", which is accessed any time KVM
is walking and/or manipulating the shadow page tables.

No functional change intended.
