Subject: [PATCH 17/25 -v2] introduce paravirt_release_pgd()
Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2007 16:12:29 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11867732424024-git-send-email-gcosta@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <11867732373232-git-send-email-gcosta@redhat.com>
This patch introduces a new macro/function that informs a paravirt
guest when its page table is not more in use, and can be released.
In case we're not paravirt, just do nothing.
