[PATCH v4 7/8] hugetlb: batch TLB flushes when freeing vmemmap
From: Mike Kravetz
Date: Mon Sep 18 2023 - 19:03:15 EST
From: Joao Martins <joao.m.martins@xxxxxxxxxx>
Now that a list of pages is deduplicated at once, the TLB
flush can be batched for all vmemmap pages that got remapped.
Expand the flags field value to pass whether to skip the TLB flush
on remap of the PTE.
The TLB flush is global as we don't have guarantees from caller
that the set of folios is contiguous, or to add complexity in
composing a list of kVAs to flush.
Modified by Mike Kravetz to perform TLB flush on single folio if an
error is encountered.
