Add handling of TLB invalidation requests before entering guest mode. This will allow asynchonous invalidation of the VCPU mappings when physical memory regions are altered. Should the CPU running the VCPU already be in guest mode an IPI will be sent to trigger a guest exit. The reload_asid path will be used in a future patch for when GVA is about to be directly accessed by KVM. In the process, the stale user ASID check in the re-entry path (for lazy user GVA flushing) is generalised to check the ASID for the current guest mode, in case a TLB invalidation request was handled. This has the side effect of making the ASID checks on vcpu_load too conservative, which will be addressed in a later patch.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
