[PATCH v13 73/85] KVM: PPC: Remove extra get_page() to fix page refcount leak

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

 



Don't manually do get_page() when patching dcbz, as gfn_to_page() gifts
the caller a reference.  I.e. doing get_page() will leak the page due to
not putting all references.
