From bf4bea8e9a9058319a19f8c2710a6f0ef2459983 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2014 08:33:56 +0000 Subject: kvm: fix kvm_is_mmio_pfn() and rename to kvm_is_reserved_pfn() This reverts commit 85c8555ff0 ("KVM: check for !is_zero_pfn() in kvm_is_mmio_pfn()") and renames the function to kvm_is_reserved_pfn. The problem being addressed by the patch above was that some ARM code based the memory mapping attributes of a pfn on the return value of kvm_is_mmio_pfn(), whose name indeed suggests that such pfns should be mapped as device memory. However, kvm_is_mmio_pfn() doesn't do quite what it says on the tin, and the existing non-ARM users were already using it in a way which suggests that its name should probably have been 'kvm_is_reserved_pfn' from the beginning, e.g., whether or not to call get_page/put_page on it etc. This means that returning false for the zero page is a mistake and the patch above should be reverted.
