Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] KVM: arm64: Remove VPIPT I-cache handling
Date: Mon, 27 Nov 2023 17:26:11 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231127172613.1490283-2-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231127172613.1490283-1-maz@kernel.org>
We have some special handling for VPIPT I-cache in critical parts
of the cache and TLB maintenance. Remove it.
