[PATCH v3 1/6] KVM: MMU: fix forgot flush tlbs on sync_page path

From: Xiao Guangrong
Date: Fri Nov 19 2010 - 03:57:33 EST


We should flush all tlbs after drop spte on sync_page path since:

Quote from Avi:
| sync_page
| drop_spte
| kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_page
| kvm_unmap_rmapp
| spte doesn't exist -> no flush
| page is freed
| guest can write into freed page?
