[PATCH 1/2] KVM: arm64: Improve error handling from check_host_shared_guest()
From: Quentin Perret
Date: Fri Feb 07 2025 - 09:55:05 EST
The check_host_shared_guest() path expects to find a last-level valid
PTE in the guest's stage-2 page-table. However, it checks the PTE's
level before its validity, which makes it hard for callers to figure out
what went wrong.
To make error handling simpler, check the PTE's validity first.
