The @size is always 1 from the caller, which means the parameter
can be dropped from stage2_update_leaf_attrs(). In the meanwhile,
we don't know the page is mapped by PUD, PMD or PTE. So to have
fixed value ("1") looks meaningless.

I add extra callers later on, for example kvm_pgtable_stage2_wrprotect(),
which pass a size, so it's needed for that.


Yes, we still need @size in the subsequent patches. So this suggestion
isn't valid.

Thanks,
Gavin
