[PATCH] mm: Export follow_pte() for KVM so that KVM can stop using follow_pfn()

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

 



Export follow_pte() to fix build breakage when KVM is built as a module.
An in-flight KVM fix switches from follow_pfn() to follow_pte() in order
to grab the page protections along with the PFN.

Fixes: bd2fae8da794 ("KVM: do not assume PTE is writable after follow_pfn")

Paolo, maybe you can squash this with the appropriate acks?
