Subject[PATCH] kvm: x86 mmu: avoid mmu_page_hash lookup for direct_map-only VM
From
From: Peter Feiner <pfeiner@google.com>

Optimization for avoiding lookups in mmu_page_hash. When there's a
single direct root, a shadow page has at most one parent SPTE
(non-root SPs have exactly one; the root has none). Thus, if an SPTE
is non-present, it can be linked to a newly allocated SP without
first checking if the SP already exists.

This optimization has proven significant in batch large SP shattering
where the hash lookup accounted for 95% of the overhead.
