Subject: [PATCH v2 03/13] x86/cpa: Warn if kernel_unmap_pages_in_pgd is used inappropriately
Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2016 13:00:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3336bb02792d56c49d18e2f7a435fd194a4a22e4.1466192946.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1466192946.git.luto@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1466192946.git.luto@kernel.org>
It's currently only used in the EFI code, which is safe AFAICT.
Warn if anyone tries to use it on the normal kernel pgd.
