Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Factor in whether or not the old/new SPTEs are shadow-present when adjusting the large page stats in the TDP MMU. A modified MMIO SPTE can toggle the page size bit, as bit 7 is used to store the MMIO generation, i.e. is_large_pte() can get a false positive when called on a MMIO SPTE. Ditto for nuking SPTEs with REMOVED_SPTE, which sets bit 7 in its magic value. Opportunistically move the logic below the check to verify at least one of the old/new SPTEs is shadow present. Use is/was_leaf even though is/was_present would suffice. The code generation is roughly equivalent since all flags need to be computed prior to the code in question, and using the *_leaf flags will minimize the diff in a future enhancement to account all pages, i.e. will change the check to "is_leaf != was_leaf".
