MIPS: KVM: remove shadow_tlb code
The kvm_mips_init_shadow_tlb() function is called from
kvm_arch_vcpu_init() and initialises entries 0 to
current_cpu_data.tlbsize-1 of the virtual cpu's shadow_tlb[64] array.
However newer cores with FTLBs can have a tlbsize > 64, for example the
ProAptiv I'm testing on has a total tlbsize of 576. This causes
kvm_mips_init_shadow_tlb() to overflow the shadow_tlb[64] array and
overwrite the comparecount_timer among other things, causing a lock up
when starting a KVM guest.
Aside from kvm_mips_init_shadow_tlb() which only initialises it, the
shadow_tlb[64] array is only actually used by the following functions:
- kvm_shadow_tlb_put() & kvm_shadow_tlb_load()
These are never called. The only call sites are #if 0'd out.
- kvm_mips_dump_shadow_tlbs()
This is never called.
It was originally added for trap & emulate, but turned out to be
unnecessary so it was disabled.
So instead of fixing the shadow_tlb initialisation code, lets just
remove the shadow_tlb[64] array and the above functions entirely. The
only functional change here is the removal of broken shadow_tlb
initialisation. The rest just deletes dead code.
