From bae0a76b07447df091f5906fd7c6678cbed9f7d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marcelo Tosatti Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2009 15:05:53 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "KVM: x86: check for cr3 validity in ioctl_set_sregs" (cherry picked from commit dc7e795e3dd2a763e5ceaa1615f307e808cf3932) This reverts commit 6c20e1442bb1c62914bb85b7f4a38973d2a423ba. To my understanding, it became obsolete with the advent of the more robust check in mmu_alloc_roots (89da4ff17f). Moreover, it prevents the conceptually safe pattern 1. set sregs 2. register mem-slots 3. run vcpu by setting a sticky triple fault during step 1.
