    KVM: x86/mmu: Set @writable to false for non-visible accesses by L2 · c583eed6

    Explicitly set @writable to false in try_async_pf() if the GFN->PFN
    translation is short-circuited due to the requested GFN not being
    visible to L2.
    
    Leaving @writable ('map_writable' in the callers) uninitialized is ok
    in that it's never actually consumed, but one has to track it all the
    way through set_spte() being short-circuited by set_mmio_spte() to
    understand that the uninitialized variable is benign, and relying on
    @writable being ignored is an unnecessary risk.  Explicitly setting
    @writable also aligns try_async_pf() with __gfn_to_pfn_memslot().
