Subject: [RFC PATCH 01/46] KVM: luo: Delegate VM creation type to kvm_arch_vm_luo_preserve
Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2026 15:36:05 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260920193650.3373435-2-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260920193650.3373435-1-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com>

Remove the architecture-specific #ifdef ladder setting ser->type in
kvm_luo_preserve(). Leaving ser->type zero by default allows
kvm_arch_vm_luo_preserve() to populate the architecture-defined VM
creation flags without referencing unexported architecture symbols in
generic KVM code.
