KVM: MTRR: improve kvm_mtrr_get_guest_memory_type
- kvm_mtrr_get_guest_memory_type() only checks one page in MTRRs so that it's unnecessary to check to see if the range is partially covered in MTRR - optimize the check of overlap memory type and add some comments to explain the precedence Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <guangrong.xiao@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
