  Now that the Shadow MMU has been factored out of mmu.c and the naming
sheme has been cleaned up, it's clear that there's an unnecessary
operation in direct_page_fault(). Since the MMU page quota is only
applied to the Shadow MMU, there's no point to calling
kvm_shadow_mmu_make_pages_available on a fault where the TDP MMU is
going to handle installing new TDP PTEs.

Jinx! An equivalent change recently went into kvm/queue:
