Subject: [PATCH] x86, cpa: Cleanup split_large_page and its callee
Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2013 18:16:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1363886217-24703-1-git-send-email-bp@alien8.de> (raw)

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

So basically we're generating the pte_t * from a struct page and we're
handing it down to the __split_large_page internal version which then
goes and gets back struct page * from it because it needs it.

Change the caller to hand down struct page * directly and the callee can
compute the pte_t itself.

Net save is one virt_to_page() call and simpler code. While at it, make
__split_large_page static.
