From: David Hildenbrand Date: Wed, 26 Feb 2025 13:22:57 +0000 (+0100) Subject: mm/mmu_notifier: use MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR in remove_device_exclusive_entry() X-Git-Tag: v6.15-rc1~81^2~210 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=720ba85040a6549674e5599685ca7df86a902448;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git mm/mmu_notifier: use MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR in remove_device_exclusive_entry() Let's limit the use of MMU_NOTIFY_EXCLUSIVE to the case where we convert a present PTE to device-exclusive. For the other case, we can simply use MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR, because it really is clearing the device-exclusive entry first, to then install the present entry. Update the documentation of MMU_NOTIFY_EXCLUSIVE, to document the single use case more thoroughly. If ever required, we could add a separate MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR_EXCLUSIVE; for now using MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR seems to be sufficient.
