Re: [PATCH 04/30] x86, kaiser: disable global pages by default with KAISER

#ifdef CONFIG_KAISER
#define __PAGE_KERNEL_GLOBAL	0
#else
#define __PAGE_KERNEL_GLOBAL	_PAGE_GLOBAL
#endif

... and I've added your Reviewed-by tag which I assume now applies?

Ideally we replace the whole patch with the __supported_pte_mask one which
I posted as a delta patch.

Thanks,
