    paravirt: clean up lazy mode handling · 8965c1c0
    Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于
    Currently, the set_lazy_mode pv_op is overloaded with 5 functions:
     1. enter lazy cpu mode
     2. leave lazy cpu mode
     3. enter lazy mmu mode
     4. leave lazy mmu mode
     5. flush pending batched operations
    
    This complicates each paravirt backend, since it needs to deal with
    all the possible state transitions, handling flushing, etc. In
    particular, flushing is quite distinct from the other 4 functions, and
    seems to just cause complication.
    
    This patch removes the set_lazy_mode operation, and adds "enter" and
    "leave" lazy mode operations on mmu_ops and cpu_ops.  All the logic
    associated with enter and leaving lazy states is now in common code
    (basically BUG_ONs to make sure that no mode is current when entering
    a lazy mode, and make sure that the mode is current when leaving).
    Also, flush is handled in a common way, by simply leaving and
    re-entering the lazy mode.
    
    The result is that the Xen, lguest and VMI lazy mode implementations
    are much simpler.
