This series provides a Xen implementation, but it should be
straightforward to add a KVM implementation as well.


Looks like a good baseline on which to build the KVM implementation. We
might need some handshake to prevent interference on the host side with
the PLE code.


Avi, Thanks for reviewing. True, it is sort of equivalent to PLE on non PLE machine.

Ingo, Peter,
Can you please let us know if this series can be considered for next merge window?
OR do you still have some concerns that needs addressing.

I shall rebase patches to 3.3 and resend. (main difference would be UNINLINE_SPIN_UNLOCK and jump label changes to use static_key_true/false() usage instead of static_branch.)

Thanks,
Raghu
