From 43d2b14b105fb00b8864c7b0ee7043cc1cc4a969 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Christopherson Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2019 13:01:28 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "KVM: MMU: zap pages in batch" Unwinding optimizations related to obsolete pages is a step towards removing x86 KVM's fast invalidate mechanism, i.e. this is one part of a revert all patches from the series that introduced the mechanism[1]. This reverts commit e7d11c7a894986a13817c1c001e1e7668c5c4eb4.
