Subject: Re: [PATCH 05/10] KVM: VMX: Convert local exit_reason to u16 in vmx_handle_exit()

Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@...el.com> writes:

> Convert the local "exit_reason" in vmx_handle_exit() from a u32 to a u16
> as most references expect to encounter only the basic exit reason.  Use
> vmx->exit_reason directly for paths that expect the full exit reason,
> i.e. to avoid having to figure out a decent name for a second local
> variable.
