Subject[PATCH v2 0/3] x86/mm/64: Remove vmalloc/ioremap pgtable synchronization
Date
Hi,

here is a small patch-set to implement pre-allocation of the P4D/PUD
pages in the vmalloc/ioremap area of the address space. This allows to
remove the synchronization of these mappings for x86-64 and unexporting
the sync_global_pgds() function.

Please review.

Thanks,

Joerg

Changes to v1:

- Made failure at pre-allocation stage fatal
- As a consequence removed the arch_sync_kernel_mappings()
implementation for x86-64
- Unexported sync_global_pgds()
- Removed some left-over debug code from the first patch

x86/mm/64: Pre-allocate p4d/pud pages for vmalloc area
x86/mm/64: Do not sync vmalloc/ioremap mappings
x86/mm/64: Make sync_global_pgds() static
