Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] respin of mprotect performance patch
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.3.6.070618
Bruce,

Attached is my equivalent implementation of ATOMIC_PT_UPDATE. Notice that I
changed the name to MMU_PT_UPDATE_PRESERVE_AD, also that I removed a bunch
of code duplication albeit at the expense of passing yet another parameter
around.

Could you rev your Linux patch and give it a spin?

 Thanks,
 Keir
