[PATCH v4 09/12] Retry fault before vmentry

From: Gleb Natapov
Date: Tue Jul 06 2010 - 12:26:07 EST


When page is swapped in it is mapped into guest memory only after guest
tries to access it again and generate another fault. To save this fault
we can map it immediately since we know that guest is going to access
the page.
