Subject: [PATCH] x86: adjust vmalloc_sync_all() for Xen (2nd try)
Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2008 12:53:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48B7FF69.76E4.0078.0@novell.com> (raw)

Since the fourth PDPT entry cannot be shared under Xen,
vmalloc_sync_all() must iterate over pmd-s rather than pgd-s here.
Luckily, the code isn't used for native PAE (SHARED_KERNEL_PMD is 1)
and the change is benign to non-PAE.

Also do a little more cleanup in that function.
