To centralize the memory allocation for I/O we define
the alloc_io_page/free_io_page functions which share the I/O
memory with the host in case the guest runs with
protected virtualization.

If you're ok with the amount of mails you'll get then go ahead.
But I think maintainer file changes should always be in a separate patch.

I think we wanted to use:

@Janosch , @Thomas

/* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-or-later */

or

// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only

later or only ?

/* or // ?


If both are OK, I will take the Janosch proposition which is in use in
vm.[ch] and ignore the Linux checkpatch warning.

Just to : Why are you people not using the Linux style code completely
instead of making new exceptions.

i.e. SPDX license and MAINTAINERS


s390 also has /* */ style SPDX and GPL2.0+ statements in the kernel...

Since KUT has way less developers the style rules aren't as strict and
currently I see that as an advantage. Following checkpatch down the
cliff is a bad idea in the kernel and for unit tests. It's most often
correct, but not always.


Oh OK,
thanks for the explanation,

Pierre
