From 774926641d1968a4839da3a6ac79d914742aac2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takuya Yoshikawa Date: Fri, 18 Dec 2015 18:54:49 +0900 Subject: KVM: x86: MMU: Use clear_page() instead of init_shadow_page_table() Not just in order to clean up the code, but to make it faster by using enhanced instructions: the initialization became 20-30% faster on our testing machine.
