Subject: [PATCH 0/7] KVM: x86/MMU: Factor rmap operations out of mmu.c
Move the basic operations for manipulating an rmap out of mmu.c, into
their own files.
This is the first step in a series of series to split the Shadow MMU out of
mmu.c. Splitting the shadow MMU out results in about a 50% reduction in line
count of mmu.c, from ~7K to ~3.5K. The rmap operations only represent about
10% of the Shadow MMU but are split out first becase the are relatively
self-contained.
This split may also help facilitate the addition of kUnit tests for rmap
manipulation, especially the fiddly bit flag which diferentiates a direct
pointer from a pte_list_desc.
This effort is complimentary to David Matlack's proposal to refactor
the TDP MMU into an arch-neutral implementation because it further
clarifies the distinction between the Shadow MMU and TDP MMU within x86.
This series contains no functional changes. It's just a direct movement
of code from one file to another.
Whether this rmap code should stay in its own file or get merged with
the rest of the shadow MMU code as it is factored out is open for
debate.
