[patch V2 2/5] x86/kaiser: Simplify disabling of global pages
From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sun Nov 26 2017 - 18:26:10 EST
The current way of disabling global pages at compile time prevents boot
time disabling of kaiser and creates unnecessary indirections.
Global pages can be supressed by __supported_pte_mask as well. The shadow
mappings set PAGE_GLOBAL for the minimal kernel mappings which are required
for entry/exit. These mappings are setup manually so the filtering does not
take place.
