[PATCH v7 5/7] Drivers: hv: Improve region overlap detection in partition create

From: Stanislav Kinsburskii

Date: Tue Nov 25 2025 - 21:10:06 EST


Refactor region overlap check in mshv_partition_create_region to use
mshv_partition_region_by_gfn for both start and end guest PFNs, replacing
manual iteration.

This is a cleaner approach that leverages existing functionality to
accurately detect overlapping memory regions.
