Good catch. There's another potential optimization to be done a little above
this change:
while (ret > 0) {
(...)
/* Update AIA HW state before entering guest */
ret = kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_update(vcpu);
if (ret <= 0) {
preempt_enable();
continue; <------------------
}
(...)
Note that this 'continue' isn't doing much - we'll restart the loop with ret <= 0
while requiring ret > 0 to do another iteration. I.e. this 'continue' can be
replaced for 'break' without compromising the logic.
(of course, testing it to be sure is always advised :D )
