From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Introduce a generic kvm_mem_is_private() interface using a static call to determine if a GFN is private. This allows the implementation for checking a GFN's private/shared status to be set at runtime. In preparation for choosing implementations between a guest_memfd lookup and the existing VM attribute lookup, rename the existing VM-attribute-based check to kvm_vm_mem_is_private to emphasize that it looks up VM attributes.

Here ^^ as the static call update ? Suzuki
