Can you make this function memslot_valid_for_gpte(struct kvm_memory_slot
*slot, bool no_dirty_log), and have it return

	slot && !(slot->flags & KVM_MEMSLOT_INVALID) &&
	      (!no_dirty_log || !slot->dirty_bitmap)

?  If gfn_to_memslot_dirty_bitmap and mapping_level call the same
function, it helps highlighting the similarity between them.  Your
optimization loses that similarity in the name, but I think we can bring
it back somehow.

Otherwise, the patches are great.  Thanks!

Paolo
