[PATCH v5 17/21] KVM: x86/mmu: Extend make_huge_page_split_spte() for the shadow MMU

David Matlack

Currently make_huge_page_split_spte() assumes execute permissions can be
granted to any 4K SPTE when splitting huge pages. This is true for the
TDP MMU but is not necessarily true for the shadow MMU, since KVM may be
shadowing a non-executable huge page.

To fix this, pass in the role of the child shadow page where the huge
page will be split and derive the execution permission from that. This
is correct because huge pages are always split with direct shadow page
and thus the shadow page role contains the correct access permissions.

No functional change intended.
