[PATCH 3/3] x86-64: make flush_tlb_kernel_range() a static inlinefunction

[Jeff Garzik]

The following change was checked into 'warnings' branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/misc-2.6.git

commit b1c9131343597967d8fcc042f59e4ed36ea2855f

    [X86-64] make flush_tlb_kernel_range() a static inline function
    
    On x86-64, without this change, the following warning is emitted
    
    mm/vmalloc.c: In function âunmap_kernel_rangeâ:
    mm/vmalloc.c:75: warning: unused variable âstartâ
    
    because, x86-64, flush_tlb_kernel_range(start,end) evaluates down to
    flush_tlb_all(void) in a macro.
    
    Avoid this warning by implementing x86-64's flush_tlb_kernel_range() as
    a type-safe static inline, rather than a macro.
