David Gibson aae0777f1e KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Split HPT allocation from activation
Currently, kvmppc_alloc_hpt() both allocates a new hashed page table (HPT)
and sets it up as the active page table for a VM.  For the upcoming HPT
resize implementation we're going to want to allocate HPTs separately from
activating them.

So, split the allocation itself out into kvmppc_allocate_hpt() and perform
the activation with a new kvmppc_set_hpt() function.  Likewise we split
kvmppc_free_hpt(), which just frees the HPT, from kvmppc_release_hpt()
which unsets it as an active HPT, then frees it.

We also move the logic to fall back to smaller HPT sizes if the first try
fails into the single caller which used that behaviour,
kvmppc_hv_setup_htab_rma().  This introduces a slight semantic change, in
that previously if the initial attempt at CMA allocation failed, we would
fall back to attempting smaller sizes with the page allocator.  Now, we
try first CMA, then the page allocator at each size.  As far as I can tell
this change should be harmless.

To match, we make kvmppc_free_hpt() just free the actual HPT itself.  The
call to kvmppc_free_lpid() that was there, we move to the single caller.

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.
