[RFC PATCH 1/2] mm/mmu_gather: Invalidate TLB correctly on batch allocation failure and flush

[Aneesh Kumar K.V]

Architectures for which we have hardware walkers of Linux page table should
flush TLB on mmu gather batch allocation failures and batch flush. Some
architectures like POWER supports multiple translation modes (hash and radix)
and in the case of POWER only radix translation mode needs the above TLBI.
This is because for hash translation mode kernel wants to avoid this extra
flush since there are no hardware walkers of linux page table. With radix
translation, the hardware also walks linux page table and with that, kernel
needs to make sure to TLB invalidate page walk cache before page table pages are
freed.

More details in
commit: d86564a2f085 ("mm/tlb, x86/mm: Support invalidating TLB caches for RCU_TABLE_FREE")

Based on changes from Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
