Heh, don't be sorry, it's not your fault I can't get this quite right. Fixed
up yet again, hopefully for the last time. This is what I ended up with for the
comment:
/*
* Non-coherent DMA assignment and de-assignment will affect
* whether KVM honors guest MTRRs and cause changes in memtypes
* in TDP.
* So, pass %true unconditionally to indicate non-coherent DMA was,
* or will be involved, and that zapping SPTEs might be necessary.
