[PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: x86: Remove unnecessory assignment to uret->data

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



While update_transition_efer() doesn't unconditionally set uret->data,
which on the surface makes this look suspect, but it's safe because
uret->data is consumed if and only if uret->load_into_hardware is
true, and it's (a) set to false if uret->data isn't updated and
(b) uret->data is guaranteed to be updated before it's set to true.

Drop the local "msr" and use "vmx" directly instead of redoing to_vmx().
