Subject: [PATCH v2 0/7] KVM: x86: Clean up rmap zap helpers

Clean up the rmap helpers (mostly renames) to yield a more coherent set of
APIs, and to purge the irritating and inconsistent "rmapp" (p is for pointer)
nomenclature.

Patch 1 is a tangentially related fix for a benign bug.

v2:
  - Split up patches into smaller, more related chunks. [Paolo]
  - Reorder patches to put all renames at the end. [Paolo]
  - Avoid quadruple underscores and use more consistent names. [Paolo]

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220712015558.1247978-1-seanjc@google.com

Sean Christopherson (7):
  KVM: x86/mmu: Return a u64 (the old SPTE) from
    mmu_spte_clear_track_bits()
  KVM: x86/mmu: Directly "destroy" PTE list when recycling rmaps
  KVM: x86/mmu: Drop the "p is for pointer" from rmap helpers
  KVM: x86/mmu: Rename __kvm_zap_rmaps() to align with other
    nomenclature
  KVM: x86/mmu: Rename rmap zap helpers to eliminate "unmap" wrapper
  KVM: x86/mmu: Rename pte_list_{destroy,remove}() to show they zap
    SPTEs
  KVM: x86/mmu: Remove underscores from __pte_list_remove()
