There was some naming queries about the DISABLE_INTERRUPTS vs _CLI etc, but I think they're OK. > unfix-fixmap.patch OK, I'm still not convinced on making __FIXMAP_TOP a variable rather than just defining it to something in the paravirt_ops structure. The latter is a 3 line patch, and much clearer in intent. > fixmap-bootparam.patch While this would justify the above patch, it is IMHO, the wrong approach for adding a paravirt module later: a module shouldn't fail to load because you forgot a boot cmdline param. I really think a #ifdef CONFIG_XXX_MODULE would be clearer. > remove-read-hazard-from-cow.patch > pte-clear-not-present.patch > pgd-free-mm.patch These look like general goodness to me. > notes-segment.patch Be nice to see a user of this infrastructure, given it's fairly significant. Didn't someone mention PPC using something like this? Could we turn this into a "move infrastructure into arch-indep" patch? > Yes? No? Maybe? Post more? Post less? Post those, I'd say.
