kvm_set_pte is called to replace a target PTE with a desired one.
We always do this without changing the desired one, but if dirty
status set by hardware is coverred, let caller know it.

This usage of *ptep looks wrong - it's read twice using READ_ONCE (once 
in kvm_s2pte_dbm()) and once without any decoration (in the pte_none() 
call). Which looks a bit dodgy and at the very least needs some 
justification. AFAICT you would be better taking a local copy and using 
that rather than reading from memory repeatedly.

This look appears to be reinventing xchg_relaxed(). Any reason we can't 
just use xchg_relaxed()? Also we had a dsb() after the WRITE_ONCE but 
you are using the _relaxed variant here. What is the justification for 
not having a barrier?

You might be able to avoid this #ifdef by redefining old_logging as:

   old_logging = IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM64_HW_AFDBM) && ...

I *think* the compiler should be able to kill the dead code and leave 
you with just the above when the config symbol is off.

oh yes. Here we can use a local copy to get higher performance.

I am not sure here has problem about correctness. I *think* we should always acquire corresponding lock before manipulate PTs,
so there is no other agent will update PTs during our several PTs access (except MMU, but it just modifies AF and [S2]AP) .
But do I miss something?

Aha, I have changed the code for several times and it is equal to xchg_relaxed now, thanks.

I use _relaxd here because I am not clear about the reason that we use _relaxed in kvm_set_s2XXX_XXX and use dsb() in kvm_set_pte.
But I will correct this in patch v2.

After my test, you are right ;-) .
