Subject: [PATCH RFC 03/10] KVM: guest_memfd: Avoid conditional mmu_lock acquisition
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 16:21:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910162343.4092060-4-elver@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910162343.4092060-1-elver@google.com>

Refactor __kvm_gmem_invalidate_start() to check for present bindings
upfront via xa_find() instead of tracking found memslots inside the
range iteration with a 'found_memslot' flag and conditionally acquiring
and releasing KVM's mmu_lock.

Eliminating the conditional locking inside the loop simplifies control
flow, ensures lock scoping is straightforward, and subsequently allows
Clang context analysis to verify that mmu_lock is held unconditionally
across kvm_mmu_unmap_gfn_range().

No functional change intended.
