There is no reason why this code should not be allowed to run on PV guest on a F00F-affected CPU -- it would simply never trigger. The pv_enabled() check was there only to avoid printing the f00f workaround, so removing the check is purely a cosmetic change. Suggested-by: Andy Lutomirski Signed-off-by: Luis R.
