[PATCH v2 47/60] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV P9: Comment and fix MMU context switching code

Nicholas Piggin <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.kvm-ppc,org.ozlabs.lists.linuxppc-dev
Message-ID <[email protected]>
Tighten up partition switching code synchronisation and comments.

In particular, hwsync ; isync is required after the last access that is
performed in the context of a partition, before the partition is
switched away from.
