Subject: [PATCH 1/5] x86/paravirt: Replace io_delay() hook with a bool
Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2025 17:20:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251126162018.5676-2-jgross@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251126162018.5676-1-jgross@suse.com>

The io_delay() paravirt hook is in no way performance critical and all
users setting it to a different function than native_io_delay() are
using an empty function as replacement.

This enables to replace the hook with a bool indicating whether
native_io_delay() should be called.
