Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] x86/mm/pat: Convert pte code to use ptdescs
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2026 14:40:47 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260128224049.385013-2-vishal.moola@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260128224049.385013-1-vishal.moola@gmail.com>

In order to separately allocate ptdescs from pages, we need all allocation
and free sites to use the appropriate functions. Convert these pte
allocation/free sites to use ptdescs.
