As the author of the patch, I agree.

This seems to be preparation for something we don't plan to do in
-stable. Please drop.

Best regards,

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 3/7] x86/hyperv: Use slow_virt_to_phys() in page transition hypervisor callback

2024-03-11 Thread Sasha Levin
From: Michael Kelley 

[ Upstream commit 9fef276f9f416a1e85eb48d3bd38e6018a220bf5 ]

In preparation for temporarily marking pages not present during a
transition between encrypted and decrypted, use slow_virt_to_phys()
in the hypervisor callback. As long as the PFN is correct,
slow_virt_to_phys() works even if the leaf PTE is not present.
The existing functions that depend on vmalloc_to_page() all
require that the leaf PTE be marked present, so they don't work.

Update the comments for slow_virt_to_phys() to note this broader usage
and the requirement to work even if the PTE is not marked present.
