    mm, x86/mm: Make the batched unmap TLB flush API more generic · e73ad5ff
    Andy Lutomirski 提交于
    try_to_unmap_flush() used to open-code a rather x86-centric flush
    sequence: local_flush_tlb() + flush_tlb_others().  Rearrange the
    code so that the arch (only x86 for now) provides
    arch_tlbbatch_add_mm() and arch_tlbbatch_flush() and the core code
    calls those functions instead.
    
    I'll want this for x86 because, to enable address space ids, I can't
    support the flush_tlb_others() mode used by exising
    try_to_unmap_flush() implementation with good performance.  I can
    support the new API fairly easily, though.
    
    I imagine that other architectures may be in a similar position.
    Architectures with strong remote flush primitives (arm64?) may have
    even worse performance problems with flush_tlb_others() the way that
    try_to_unmap_flush() uses it.
