In tdp_mmu_iter_cond_resched there is a call to tdp_iter_start which causes the iterator to continue its walk over the paging structure from the root. This is needed after a yield as paging structure could have been freed in the interim. The tdp_iter_start call is not very clear and something of a hack. It requires exposing tdp_iter fields not used elsewhere in tdp_mmu.c and the effect is not obvious from the function name. Factor a more aptly named function out of tdp_iter_start and call it from tdp_mmu_iter_cond_resched and tdp_iter_start. No functional change intended.

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.
