This cannot be in the generic code.  It is architecture-specific.

Yes.

Please add a new function kvm_arch_mmu_notifier_invalidate_page, and
call it outside the mmu_lock.

Then I think we need a macro to control the calling of this arch function
since other architectures do not have it.


kvm_reload_apic_access_page need not be in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c, either.

Since kvm_reload_apic_access_page() only calls make_all_cpus_request(),
and make_all_cpus_request() is static, I'd like to make it non-static, rename it to kvm_make_all_cpus_request() and call it directly in kvm_arch_mmu_notifier_invalidate_page().
we don't need kvm_reload_apic_access_page() actually.

Thanks.
