- Tweak FNAME(sync_spte) to avoid unnecessary writes+flushes when the
guest is only adding new PTEs
- Overhaul .sync_page() and .invlpg() to share the .sync_page()
implementation, i.e. utilize .sync_page()'s optimizations when emulating
invalidations
- Clean up the range-based flushing APIs
- Revamp the TDP MMU's reaping of Accessed/Dirty bits to clear a single
A/D bit using a LOCK AND instead of XCHG, and skip all of the "handle
changed SPTE" overhead associated with writing the entire entry
- Track the number of "tail" entries in a pte_list_desc to avoid having
to walk (potentially) all descriptors during insertion and deletion,
which gets quite expensive if the guest is spamming fork()
- Misc cleanups

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 Restructured Text 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.
