Subject: [PATCH 04/22] KVM: x86/mmu: rephrase unclear comment
Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2022 03:39:42 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220414074000.31438-5-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220414074000.31438-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>

If accessed bits are not supported there simple isn't any distinction
between accessed and non-accessed gPTEs, so the comment does not make
much sense.  Rephrase it in terms of what happens if accessed bits
*are* supported.
