Wanpeng Li f38a7b7526 KVM: X86: support paravirtualized help for TLB shootdowns
When running on a virtual machine, IPIs are expensive when the target
CPU is sleeping.  Thus, it is nice to be able to avoid them for TLB
shootdowns.  KVM can just do the flush via INVVPID on the guest's behalf
the next time the CPU is scheduled.

README

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.
