[PATCH v2 4/4] KVM: x86/mmu: fix comment about mmu_unsync_pages_lock

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Fix the comment about what can and cannot happen when mmu_unsync_pages_lock
is not help.  The comment correctly mentions "clearing sp->unsync", but then
it talks about unsync going from 0 to 1.
