Subject: Re: [kvm-devel] [patch 2/6] mmu_notifier: Callbacks to invalidate
address ranges
Patch to
1. Remove sync on notifier_release. Must be called when only a
single process remain.
2. Add invalidate_range_start/end. This should allow safe removal
of ranges of external ptes without having to resort to a callback
for every individual page.
This must be able to nest so the driver needs to keep a refcount of range
invalidates and wait if the refcount != 0.
