Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/3] kvm mmu: remove redundant check in mmu_set_spte
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2009 15:38:08 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090218183808.GE25719@amt.cnet> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1234962540-7131-3-git-send-email-joerg.roedel@amd.com>


The following code flow is unnecessary:

	if (largepage)
		was_rmapped = is_large_pte(*shadow_pte);
	 else
	 	was_rmapped = 1;

The is_large_pte() function will always evaluate to one here because the
(largepage && !is_large_pte) case is already handled in the first
if-clause. So we can remove this check and set was_rmapped to one always
here.
