[PATCH 04/11] clear_refs: redefine callback functions for page table walker

From: Naoya Horiguchi
Date: Mon Oct 14 2013 - 13:39:13 EST


Currently clear_refs_pte_range() is connected to pmd_entry() to split thps
if found. But now this work can be done in core page table walker code.
So we have no reason to keep this callback on pmd_entry(). This patch moves
pte handling code on pte_entry() callback.

clear_refs_write() has some prechecks about if we really walk over a given
vma. It's fine to let them done by test_walk() callback, so let's define it.
