+Subject: x86: discard type information when stealing pages
+
+While a page having just a single general reference left necessarily
+has a zero type reference count too, its type may still be valid (and
+in validated state; at present this is only possible and relevant for
+PGT_seg_desc_page, as page tables have their type forcibly zapped when
+their type reference count drops to zero, and
+PGT_{writable,shared}_page pages don't require any validation). In
+such a case when the page is being re-used with the same type again,
+validation is being skipped. As validation criteria differ between
+32- and 64-bit guests, pages to be transferred between guests need to
+have their validation indicator zapped (and with it we zap all other
+type information at once).
+
+This is XSA-214.
