[PATCH 05/34] KVM: PPC: Drop dead code related to KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
Date: 2023-11-05 16:31:38
Also in: kvm, kvm-riscv, kvmarm, linux-arm-kernel, linux-fsdevel, linux-mips, linux-mm, linux-riscv, lkml
Subsystem: kernel virtual machine for powerpc (kvm/powerpc), linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Linus Torvalds

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Assert that both KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER and CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER are
defined when KVM is enabled, and return '1' unconditionally for the
CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE=n path.  All flavors of PPC support for KVM
select MMU_NOTIFIER, and KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER is unconditionally
defined by arch/powerpc/include/asm/kvm_host.h.

Effectively dropping use of KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER will simplify a
future cleanup to turn KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER into a Kconfig, i.e.
will allow combining all of the

  #if defined(CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER) && defined(KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER)

checks into a single

  #ifdef CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER

without having to worry about PPC's "bare" usage of
KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER.
