[PATCH v3 2/3] arm64: Kill detection of VPIPT i-cache policy
From: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
Date: 2023-12-04 14:37:01
Also in:
kvm, kvmarm
Subsystem:
arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers:
Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds
Since the kernel will never run on a system with the VPIPT i-cache policy, drop the detection code altogether.
