Paul Mackerras f460f6791a KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Map single pages when doing dirty page logging
For radix guests, this makes KVM map guest memory as individual pages
when dirty page logging is enabled for the memslot corresponding to the
guest real address.  Having a separate partition-scoped PTE for each
system page mapped to the guest means that we have a separate dirty
bit for each page, thus making the reported dirty bitmap more accurate.
Without this, if part of guest memory is backed by transparent huge
pages, the dirty status is reported at a 2MB granularity rather than
a 64kB (or 4kB) granularity for that part, causing userspace to have
to transmit more data when migrating the guest.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
