Subject: [PATCH] i386 CPA fix - do not free reserved pages
Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2007 21:18:13 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070714011813.GA31649@Krystal> (raw)

i386 CPA fix - do not free reserved pages

We have to use the same conditions found in change_page_attr in
global_tlb_flush regarding the conditions that leads to free the page.

It applies to 2.6.22-rc6-mm1 (as it been applied for the next one ?)
