Currently, kho_preserve_* and kho_unpreserve_* return -EBUSY if KHO is finalized. This enforces a rigid "freeze" on the KHO memory state. With the introduction of re-entrant finalization, this restriction is no longer necessary. Users should be allowed to modify the preservation set (e.g., adding new pages or freeing old ones) even after an initial finalization. The intended workflow for updates is now: 1. Modify state (preserve/unpreserve). 2. Call kho_finalize() again to refresh the serialized metadata. Remove the kho_out.finalized checks to enable this dynamic behavior. This also allows to convert kho_unpreserve_* functions to void, as they do not return any error anymore.

README
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 reStructuredText 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.
