The implementation of disallowed_hugepage_adjust() is as following:

void disallowed_hugepage_adjust(struct kvm_page_fault *fault, u64 spte,
int cur_level)
{
    if (cur_level > PG_LEVEL_4K &&
        cur_level == fault->goal_level &&
        is_shadow_present_pte(spte) &&
        !is_large_pte(spte) &&
        spte_to_child_sp(spte)->nx_huge_page_disallowed) {
            ...
    }
}

One condition is spte_to_child_sp(spte)->nx_huge_page_disallowed should be
true to decrease the goal level of the fault.
Does this condition make the change of this patch invalid?
