Subject: [PATCH v2] minios: don't rely on specific page table allocation scheme
Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2015 14:52:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1448027577-23963-1-git-send-email-jgross@suse.com> (raw)

Today mini-os is making assumptions how the page tables it is started
with are being allocated. Especially it is using the number of page
table frames to calculate which is the first unmapped pfn.

Instead of relying on page table number assumptions just look into the
page tables to find the first pfn not already mapped.

Changes in V2:
- remove need_pt_frame() as it simplifies code (suggested by Wei Liu)
