After way to many months here is the fifth version of the guest page hinting patches. Compared to version four a few improvements have been added: - Avoid page_host_discards() calls outside of page-states.h - The discard list is now implemented via the page_free_discarded hook and architecture specific code. - PG_state_change page flag has been replaced with architecture specficic
