Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 6/7] KVM: Rename mn_* invalidate-related fields to generic ones
Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2026 13:53:07 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260226135309.29493-7-itazur@amazon.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260226135309.29493-1-itazur@amazon.com>

The addition of guest_memfd support to pfncaches introduces additional
sources of pfncache invalidation beyond the MMU notifier path.  The
existing mn_* naming implies that they are only relevant to MMU
notifiers, which is no longer true.

No functional changes intended.
