[PATCH 34/36] KVM: MMU: skip global pgtables on sync due to cr3 switch

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Sun Dec 14 2008 - 03:17:22 EST


From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@xxxxxxxxxx>

Skip syncing global pages on cr3 switch (but not on cr4/cr0). This is
important for Linux 32-bit guests with PAE, where the kmap page is
marked as global.
