Re: [PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: s390: fix for hugepage vmalloc

The Create Secure Configuration Ultravisor Call does not support using
large pages for the virtual memory area. This is a hardware limitation.

This patch replaces the vzalloc call with a longer but equivalent
__vmalloc_node_range call, also setting the VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP flag, to
guarantee that this allocation will not be performed with large pages.

Would be good to have this in 5.13, as for everything else we want to have
hugepages in vmalloc space on s390.

In case Andrew picks this up

for the KVM/390 part.
