Assuming you are going to pull the cpufeature checks into this helper,
it might me helpful to narrow the scope of it. 'stage2_put_pte()' sounds
very generic, but it is about to have a very precise meaning in relation
to kvm_pgtable_stage2_unmap().
So maybe stage2_unmap_put_pte()? While at it, you'd want to have a
shared helper for the deferral check:
static bool stage2_unmap_defer_tlb_flush(struct kvm_pgtable *pgt)
{
/* your blurb for why FWB is required too */
return system_supports_tlb_range() && stage2_has_fwb(pgt);
}
The 'flush' part is annoying, because the exact term is an invalidation,
but we already have that pattern in all of our TLB invalidation helpers.
