From Hyper-V TLFS:
"The hypervisor exposes hypercalls (HvFlushVirtualAddressSpace,
HvFlushVirtualAddressSpaceEx, HvFlushVirtualAddressList, and
HvFlushVirtualAddressListEx) that allow operating systems to more
efficiently manage the virtual TLB. The L1 hypervisor can choose to
allow its guest to use those hypercalls and delegate the responsibility
to handle them to the L0 hypervisor. This requires the use of a
partition assist page."
Add the Direct Virtual Flush support for SVM.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
