[PATCH v6 2/3] KVM: SVM: Remove wbinvd in sev_vm_destroe()
Posted by Zheyun Shen 1 year ago
Before sev_vm_destroy() is called, kvm_arch_guest_memory_reclaimed()
has been called for SEV and SEV-ES and kvm_arch_gmem_invalidate()
has been called for SEV-SNP. These functions have already handled
flushing the memory. Therefore, this wbinvd_on_all_cpus() can
simply be dropped.
