How come? make_cr3() uses it uniformly, as does pv_make_cr4(). toggle_guest_mode() is the one case where it's strictly 64-bit guest only. > The reason it isn't set for 32bit guests is that there is no scenario > where we use it. "pcid=1" and "pcid=noxpti" both are scenarios where, with this patch in place, we would use it.
