[PATCH v2 0/3] kvm: Use huge pages for DAX-backed files

[Barret Rhoden]

This patch series depends on dax pages not being PageReserved.  Once
that is in place, these changes will let KVM use huge pages with
dax-backed files.  Without the PageReserved change, KVM and DAX still
work with these patches, simply without huge pages - which is the
current situation.
