Subject: [PATCH 23/24] KVM: x86/mmu: Use low available bits for removed SPTEs
Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2021 12:47:48 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210225204749.1512652-24-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210225204749.1512652-1-seanjc@google.com>

Use low "available" bits to tag REMOVED SPTEs.  Using a high bit is
moderately costly as it often causes the compiler to generate a 64-bit
immediate.  More importantly, this makes it very clear REMOVED_SPTE is
a value, not a flag.
