Linux kernel source tree

As noted in [1] the KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN usage flag is never set by any callers of kvm_gpc_init(), and for good reason: the implementation is incomplete/broken. And it's not clear that there will ever be a user of KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN, as coordinating vCPUs with mmu_notifier events is non-trivial. Remove KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN and all related code, e.g. dropping KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN also makes the 'vcpu' argument redundant, to avoid having to reason about broken code as __kvm_gpc_refresh() evolves. Moreover, all existing callers specify KVM_HOST_USES_PFN so the usage check in hva_to_pfn_retry() and hence the 'usage' argument to kvm_gpc_init() are also redundant.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
