Make sure we don't issue CMOs when mapping something that is not a memory address in the S2 page tables.

I.e. have stage2_pte_cacheable() return false if !kvm_pte_valid()
That would work just as well. I'll update the patch. Thanks, M. -- Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible. _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
