The patch titled KVM: Simplify test for interrupt window has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is kvm-simplify-test-for-interrupt-window.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: KVM: Simplify test for interrupt window From: Avi Kivity <avi@xxxxxxxxxxxx> No need to test for rflags.if as both VT and SVM specs assure us that on exit caused from interrupt window opening, 'if' is set.
