Subject: [PATCH 11/15] KVM: arm64: Kill arch_timer_context::direct field
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 15:35:26 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326153530.3981879-12-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260326153530.3981879-1-maz@kernel.org>

The newly introduced arch_timer_context::direct field is a bit pointless,
as it is always set on timers that are... err... direct, while
we already have a way to get to that by doing a get_map() operation.

Additionally, this field is:

- only set when get_map() is called

- never cleared

and the single point where it is actually checked doesn't call get_map()
at all.

At this stage, it is probably better to just kill it, and rely on
get_map() to give us the correct information.

Fixes: 9491c63b6cd7b ("KVM: arm64: gic-v5: Enlighten arch timer for GICv5")
