Nit on all of these, can you remove the extra newline between the Reviewed-by
and SOB?

Include the new check with the existing if statement?  I think it makes sense to
group all the checks on old_spte.

Same comment here.

Unrelated to this patch, but it got me looking at the code: shouldn't
clear_dirty_pt_masked() clear the bit in @mask before checking whether or not
the spte needs to be modified?  That way the early break kicks in after sptes
are checked, not necessarily written.  E.g.

Yeah, that line is annoying. I'll make sure it's not there on future patches.

I agree that' s cleaner. I'll group the checks in the next patch set version.

Great point, that doesn't work as intended at all. I'll adopt your
proposed fix and include it in a patch after this one in the next
version of the series.
