Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y v3 2/7] KVM: x86/mmu: Stop passing "direct" to mmu_alloc_root()
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 00:55:18 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260913155523.7423-3-k@mgml.me> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260913155523.7423-1-k@mgml.me>

From: David Matlack <dmatlack@google.com>

commit 86938ab6925b8fe174ca6abf397e6ea9d3c054a4 upstream.

The "direct" argument is vcpu->arch.mmu->root_role.direct,
because unlike non-root page tables, it's impossible to have
a direct root in an indirect MMU.  So just use that.
