[PATCH for-4.22(?) v2] gnttab: simplify (really: drop) gnttab_set_frame_gfn()
Posted by Jan Beulich 2 weeks, 3 days ago
It's not really doing anything for valid GFNs, which renders its one use
site pretty pointless. The other isn't so much about setting anything, but
rather about clearing.

The main point here, however, is about Rafal spotting the double
fetching of the GFN (first in gnttab_unpopulate_status_frames(), then
again in gnttab_set_frame_gfn()). Re-purpose the macro parameter to pass
in the already fetched GFN, while dropping the no longer used parameters.

As the result is a mere wrapper around guest_physmap_remove_page(), drop
the hook altogether.

status is now a variable that is set but never read. Remove it.
