Subject: x86/HVM: drop memory_type_changed() call from hvm_set_guest_pat()
X-Git-Tag: archive/raspbian/4.8.0-1+rpi1~1^2~4514

x86/HVM: drop memory_type_changed() call from hvm_set_guest_pat()

The commit aa9114edd added the needless function call memory_type_changed,
it is unnessary because the PAT content does not influence the result of
epte_get_entry_emt(). If it is called, the cache will be flushed excessively
and make the nested guest very slowly, just like blocked.
