What slips under the radar on an arch like s390 might raise issues for a popular arch like x86. My fear would be if it's only a problem e.g. for realtime. Then you get a condition that's very hard to trigger and affects worst case latencies. But really what business has something that is supposedly an optimization blocking a VCPU? We are just freeing up lots of memory why is it a good idea to slow that process down? -- MST
