From 26a3e99160cfb06a0a33e25b9fb0d516e2cc680d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2008 09:35:00 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] xen: fix scrub_page() Impact: fix guest kernel crash with CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES=y Jens noticed that scrub_page() has a buggy unmap of the wrong thing. (virtual address instead of page) Linus pointed out that the whole scrub_page() code is an unnecessary reimplementation of clear_highpage() to begin with. Just use clear_highpage() rather than reimplementing it poorly.
