From b5fd06847320bed445fc1e77f9066ecdaf1efbec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Costas Argyris Date: Thu, 2 Jan 2025 15:40:50 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: VMX: Reinstate __exit attribute for vmx_exit() Tag vmx_exit() with __exit now that it's no longer used by vmx_init(). Commit a7b9020b06ec ("x86/l1tf: Handle EPT disabled state proper") dropped the "__exit" attribute from vmx_exit() because vmx_init() was changed to call vmx_exit(). However, commit e32b120071ea ("KVM: VMX: Do _all_ initialization before exposing /dev/kvm to userspace") changed vmx_init() to call __vmx_exit() instead of the "full" vmx_exit(). This made it possible to mark vmx_exit() as "__exit" again, as it originally was, and enjoy the benefits that it provides (the function can be discarded from memory in situations where it cannot be called, like the module being built-in or module unloading being disabled in the kernel).
