Subject: [PATCH v4 2/4] x86/mm/pat: Convert pte code to use ptdescs
Date: Wed,  4 Feb 2026 17:35:25 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260205013527.322157-3-vishal.moola@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260205013527.322157-1-vishal.moola@gmail.com>

We need all allocation and free sites to use the ptdesc APIs in order to
allocate them separately from regular pages. Convert these pte
allocation/free sites to use ptdescs.

Also, rename *_pte_page() functions to *_pte(). Rename them now to avoid
any confusion later. Eventually these allocations will be backed by a
ptdesc not a page, but that's not important to callers either.
