[PATCH 5/6] KVM: mmu: remove over-aggressive warnings

David Stevens stevensd at chromium.org
Thu Jun 24 13:57:48 AEST 2021


From: David Stevens <stevensd at chromium.org>

Remove two warnings that require ref counts for pages to be non-zero, as
mapped pfns from follow_pfn may not have an initialized ref count.
