[PATCH 11/67] KVM: SVM: Delete IRTE link from previous vCPU irrespective of new routing

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Fri Apr 04 2025 - 16:00:11 EST


Delete the IRTE link from the previous vCPU irrespective of the new
routing state. This is a glorified nop (only the ordering changes), as
both the "posting" and "remapped" mode paths pre-delete the link.
