[PATCH 02/10] KVM: arm64: Use guard(hyp_spinlock) in page_alloc.c

From: Fuad Tabba

Date: Mon Mar 16 2026 - 13:38:04 EST


Migrate the manual hyp_spin_lock() and hyp_spin_unlock() calls in
hyp_put_page, hyp_get_page, and hyp_alloc_pages to use the new
guard(hyp_spinlock) macro.

This eliminates the need for manual unlock calls on return paths.
Specifically, in hyp_alloc_pages, this simplifies the early return
error path by removing the manual unlock and resolving single-line
curly brace styling, reducing the potential for future lock-leak
regressions.
