commit34c0f6f269upstream. Commitcae7ed3c2c("KVM: x86: Refactor the MMIO SPTE generation handling") cleaned up the computation of MMIO generation SPTE masks, however it introduced a bug how the upper part was encoded: SPTE bits 52-61 were supposed to contain bits 10-19 of the current generation number, however a missing shift encoded bits 1-10 there instead (mostly duplicating the lower part of the encoded generation number that then consisted of bits 1-9). In the meantime, the upper part was shrunk by one bit and moved by subsequent commits to become an upper half of the encoded generation number (bits 9-17 of bits 0-17 encoded in a SPTE). In addition to the above, commit56871d444b("KVM: x86: fix overlap between SPTE_MMIO_MASK and generation") has changed the SPTE bit range assigned to encode the generation number and the total number of bits encoded but did not update them in the comment attached to their defines, nor in the KVM MMU doc. Let's do it here, too, since it is too trivial thing to warrant a separate commit. Fixes:cae7ed3c2c("KVM: x86: Refactor the MMIO SPTE generation handling") Signed-off-by: Maciej S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
