[PATCH 3/3] KVM: Recover after an arch module load failure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Yoshimi Ichiyanagi <[email protected]>

If we load the wrong arch module, it leaves behind kvm_arch_ops set, which
prevents loading of the correct arch module later.

Fix be not setting kvm_arch_ops until we're sure it's good.
