Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] AMD IOMMU: don't free page table prematurely

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

iommu_merge_pages() still wants to look at the next level page table,
the TLB flush necessary before freeing too happens in that function,
and if it fails no free should happen at all. Hence the freeing must
be done after that function returned successfully, not before it's
being called.
