[PATCH v2 7/7] target/i386: leave the A20 bit set in the final NPT walk
Posted by Paolo Bonzini 9 months ago
The A20 mask is only applied to the final memory access.  Nested
page tables are always walked with the raw guest-physical address.

Unlike the previous patch, in this one the masking must be kept, but
it was done too early.

Fixes: 4a1e9d4d11c ("target/i386: Use atomic operations for pte updates", 2022-10-18)
