[PATCH 6/8] x86: use flush_tlb_others to implement flush_tlb_all

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge
Date: Thu May 07 2009 - 20:33:37 EST


From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@xxxxxxxxxx>

Use the flush_tlb_others() call to implement flush_tlb_all(). This is
useful because flush_tlb_others() already goes via paravirt_ops, and so
will be properly paravirtualized. This needs a small extension of the
extension to the existing native_flush_tlb_others: the global flush is
indicated by setting the "mm" parameter to NULL, so that kernel mappings
are also flushed.

(Nothing similar is required for xen_flush_tlb_others, as we don't use
global mappings in a guest-visible way under Xen.)
