Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] KVM: MMU: Use __set_spte to link shadow pages
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2010 14:30:48 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1278934254-5598-3-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1278934254-5598-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com>

To avoid split accesses to 64 bit sptes on i386, use __set_spte() to link
shadow pages together.

(not technically required since shadow pages are __GFP_KERNEL, so upper 32
bits are always clear)
