Subject[PATCH] [27/36] CPA: Only queue actually unused page table pages for freeing
DateWed, 16 Jan 2008 23:15:27 +0100 (CET)
With the separate data structure added for flush earlier it is only
needed to call save_page() now on pte pages that have been already reverted.

Also move all freeing checks into the caller.
