Subject: [PATCH] paravirt: pte clear not present
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9888a1cae3f859db38b9604e3df1c02177161bb0;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] paravirt: pte clear not present

Change pte_clear_full to a more appropriately named pte_clear_not_present,
allowing optimizations when not-present mapping changes need not be reflected
in the hardware TLB for protected page table modes.  There is also another
case that can use it in the fremap code.
