Commit ae561edeb421 ("KVM: x86: DR0-DR3 are not clear on reset") added code to
ensure eff_db are updated when they're modified through non-standard paths.
But there is no reason to also update hardware DRs unless hardware breakpoints
are active or DR exiting is disabled, and in those cases updating hardware is
handled by KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT and KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED.
KVM_DEBUGREG_RELOAD just causes unnecesarry load of hardware DRs and is better
to be removed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
