[PATCH v2 3/3] KVM: Take gpa_t in kvm_vcpu_map[_readonly]()

Peter Fang
2026-04-08T00:12:41Z

Move the conversion from a gpa_t to a gfn_t into kvm_vcpu_map() and
kvm_vcpu_map_readonly() so that they take a gpa_t directly, reducing
boilerplate at call sites.

__kvm_vcpu_map() still takes a gfn_t because guest page mapping is
fundamentally GFN-based.

No functional change intended.

Compile-tested on x86 and ppc, which are the current users of these
interfaces.
