[Xen-devel] [GIT PULL] Xen core updates

[Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ingo,

Here's a set of core Xen updates, which is a superset of the bugfix
patches I posted earlier.

The additional patches are:

xen/i386: make sure initial VGA/ISA mappings are not overridden

  Make sure that ISA identity mappings are not overridden by _PAGE_IOMAP
  mappings.

x86: use flush_tlb_others to implement flush_tlb_all

  Paravirtualize flush_tlb_all by implementing it in terms of
  flush_tlb_others.  This avoids some unnecessary IPIs when flushing
  kernel mappings.

xen: cache cr0 value to avoid trap'n'emulate for read_cr0

  read_cr0 is used every context switch to set TS, but Xen has been
  implementing it with a trap'n'emulate of a native "mov cr0".  This
  adds a Xen-specific implementation of the read_cr0 pvop to avoid
  the extra trap.


The following changes since commit e7c064889606aab3569669078c69b87b2c527e72:

      x86: use flush_tlb_others to implement flush_tlb_all
      xen/i386: reserve Xen pagetables
      xen: reserve Xen start_info rather than e820 reserving
