Paolo Bonzini 5b0d0d8542 KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.18
- Recover possible NX huge pages within the TDP MMU under read lock to
    reduce guest jitter when restoring NX huge pages.
 
  - Return -EAGAIN during prefault if userspace concurrently deletes/moves the
    relevant memslot to fix an issue where prefaulting could deadlock with the
    memslot update.
 
  - Don't retry in TDX's anti-zero-step mitigation if the target memslot is
    invalid, i.e. is being deleted or moved, to fix a deadlock scenario similar
    to the aforementioned prefaulting case.

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 reStructuredText 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.
