[PATCH 17/18] KVM: x86/mmu: Allow yielding during MMU notifier unmap/zap, if possible

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
Date: 2021-03-26 02:21:51
Also in: kvm, kvmarm, linux-mips, lkml
Subsystem: kernel virtual machine for x86 (kvm/x86), the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Sean Christopherson, Paolo Bonzini, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

Let the TDP MMU yield when unmapping a range in response to a MMU
notification, if yielding is allowed by said notification.  There is no
reason to disallow yielding in this case, and in theory the range being
invalidated could be quite large.
