Subject: Re: [PATCH] drm/i915/gvt: fix double-free bug in split_2MB_gtt_entry.

Thanks for your reply.

We think that when intel_gvt_dma_map_guest_page() fails,
ppgtt_invalidate_spt is called to handle this error.

If the ppgtt_invalidate_spt is successful to kfree the spt object,
then in the ppgtt_populate_spt function there  is no need to kfree the
spt again.

And if the ppgtt_invalidate_spt failed, then in the ppgtt_populate_spt
function there is need to kfree the spt for error handling.

This is our fix, if it's not right, we are glad to discuss with you.
