[PATCH v12 54/84] KVM: arm64: Mark "struct page" pfns accessed/dirty before dropping mmu_lock
From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Fri Jul 26 2024 - 20:11:59 EST
Mark pages/folios accessed+dirty prior to dropping mmu_lock, as marking a
page/folio dirty after it has been written back can make some filesystems
unhappy (backing KVM guests will such filesystem files is uncommon, and
the race is minuscule, hence the lack of complaints). See the link below
for details.
This will also allow converting arm64 to kvm_release_faultin_page(), which
requires that mmu_lock be held (for the aforementioned reason).
