    KVM: guest_memfd: Add hook for invalidating memory · a90764f0
    Michael Roth authored
    In some cases, like with SEV-SNP, guest memory needs to be updated in a
    platform-specific manner before it can be safely freed back to the host.
    Wire up arch-defined hooks to the .free_folio kvm_gmem_aops callback to
    allow for special handling of this sort when freeing memory in response
    to FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE operations and when releasing the inode, and go
    ahead and define an arch-specific hook for x86 since it will be needed
    for handling memory used for SEV-SNP guests.
