[PATCH v2 3/3] LoongArch: Remove pte buddy set with set_pte and pte_clear function

From: Bibo Mao
Date: Mon Oct 14 2024 - 00:08:03 EST


For kernel address space area on LoongArch system, both two consecutive
page table entries should be enabled with PAGE_GLOBAL bit. So with
function set_pte() and pte_clear(), pte buddy entry is checked and set
besides its own pte entry. However it is not atomic operation to set both
two pte entries, there is problem with test_vmalloc test case.

With previous patch, all page table entries are set with PAGE_GLOBAL
bit at beginning. Only its own pte entry need update with function
set_pte() and pte_clear(), nothing to do with pte buddy entry.
