To prepare for performing guest CMOs in the fault handlers in pgtable.c,
introduce two cache maintenance callbacks in struct kvm_pgtable_mm_ops.
The new callbacks are specific for guest stage-2, so they will only be
initialized in 'struct kvm_pgtable_mm_ops kvm_s2_mm_ops'.

Please don't reintroduce the word 'flush'. We are really trying to
move away from it as it doesn't describe what we want to do.
I agree with this. I intended to make the names short and laconic, but this
missed the information about the callback's actual behaviors.
Here this
should be 'clean_invalidate_dcache' which, despite being a mouthful,
describe accurately what we expect it to do.
Sure, I will change the name as you suggested.
The comment is also missing the invalidate part, and we shouldn't
assume that this is only used for S2 mapping.
Ok, will refine the comment. I think something like"Clean and invalidate the
date cache for the specified memory address range" may be generic enough.

Same thing here; this should be 'invalidate_icache', and the comment
cleaned up.
Thanks, I will also correct this part.
Besides the callback names and comments, is there anything else that still
needs some adjustment in the other three patches? :)
It looks pretty good so far, much nicer than the previous versions.
I have a small nit on the last patch, which should be dead easy to
address. I'm currently running a bunch of tests, hopefully nothing bad
will come out of it.
If you respin it shortly, that nothing fails, and unless someone
shouts, I'll queue it for -next.
It would be nice, thanks!
I will address the nit and respin the series soon.
Thanks,
