Subject: [PATCH 12/19] KVM: x86/mmu: change nested_mmu.w to ngva_walk
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2026 17:30:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260624213102.71082-13-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260624213102.71082-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>
nested_mmu is now only used for its w member. Rename it,
and change its type.
