James Hogan dacc3ed1dd KVM: MIPS: Use uaccess to read/modify guest instructions
Now that we have GVA page tables, use standard user accesses with page
faults disabled to read & modify guest instructions. This should be more
robust (than the rather dodgy method of accessing guest mapped segments
by just directly addressing them) and will also work with Enhanced
Virtual Addressing (EVA) host kernel configurations where dedicated
instructions are needed for accessing user mode memory.

For simplicity and speed we do this regardless of the guest segment the
address resides in, rather than handling guest KSeg0 specially with
kmap_atomic() as before.

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.
