[RFC/RFT PATCH 5/6] arm64: mm: Remove arch_apei_flush_tlb_one()

From: James Morse
Date: Tue Oct 31 2017 - 11:41:15 EST


Nothing calls arch_apei_flush_tlb_one() anymore, instead relying on
__set_fixmap() to do the invalidation. Remove it.

Move the IPI-considered-harmful comment to __set_fixmap().
