Subject: [PATCH 4/9] KVM: selftests: Drop unreachable, dead code from hardware disable test
Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2026 12:19:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260730191908.2084803-5-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260730191908.2084803-1-seanjc@google.com>

Drop all of the code that is unreachable in the hardware disable test, as
it adds a lot of noise that makes the test seem far more complicated than
it actually is.
