[PATCH 04/40] xen: document Xen is using an unused bit for the pagetables

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

 



Xen has taken over the last reserved bit available for the pagetables
which is set through ioremap, this documents it and makes the code
more readable.
