[patch 2/7] x86 PAT: Add follow_pfnmp_pte routine to help tracking pfnmap pages - v3

From: venkatesh . pallipadi
Date: Thu Dec 18 2008 - 15:02:19 EST


Add a generic interface to follow pfn in a pfnmap vma range. This is used by
one of the subsequent x86 PAT related patch to keep track of memory types
for vma regions across vma copy and free.
