The hardware does not cope very well with us changing the PD within an active context (the context must be idle for it to re-read the PD). As we only check whether the page is idle before changing the entry (and on through the PD tree), we cannot reliably replace PD entries on gen6/gen7. To fully avoid changing the tree at runtime, preallocate it on init.

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.
