[PATCH v3 45/52] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV P9: Optimise hash guest SLB saving

Nicholas Piggin <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.kvm-ppc,org.ozlabs.lists.linuxppc-dev
Message-ID <[email protected]>
slbmfee/slbmfev instructions are very expensive, moreso than a regular
mfspr instruction, so minimising them significantly improves hash guest
exit performance. The slbmfev is only required if slbmfee found a valid
SLB entry.
