drm/i915/gvt: remove interface intel_gvt_is_valid_gfn
Currently intel_gvt_is_valid_gfn() is called in two places: (1) shadowing guest GGTT entry (2) shadowing guest PPGTT leaf entry, which was introduced in commit cc753fbe ("drm/i915/gvt: validate gfn before set shadow page entry"). However, now it's not necessary to call this interface any more, because a. GGTT partial write issue has been fixed by commit bc0686ff ("drm/i915/gvt: support inconsecutive partial gtt entry write") commit 510fe10b ("drm/i915/gvt: fix a bug of partially write ggtt enties") b. PPGTT resides in normal guest RAM and we only treat 8-byte writes as valid page table writes. Any invalid GPA found is regarded as an error, either due to guest misbehavior/attack or bug in host shadow code. So,rather than do GFN pre-checking and replace invalid GFNs with scratch GFN and continue silently, just remove the pre-checking and abort PPGTT shadowing on error detected. c. GFN validity check is still performed in intel_gvt_dma_map_guest_page() --> gvt_pin_guest_page(). It's more desirable to call VFIO interface to do both validity check and mapping. Calling intel_gvt_is_valid_gfn() to do GFN validity check from KVM side while later mapping the GFN through VFIO interface is unnecessarily fragile and confusing for unaware readers.
