Subject: [PATCH 16/17] KVM: arm64: Simplify integration of adjust_nested_*_perms()
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2026 17:54:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260316175451.1866175-17-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260316175451.1866175-1-maz@kernel.org>
Instead of passing pointers to adjust_nested_*_perms(), allow
them to return a new set of permissions.
With some careful moving around so that the canonical permissions
are computed before the nested ones are applied, we end-up with
a bit less code, and something a bit more readable.
