Subject: mm: Only flush the TLB when clearing an accessible pte
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8d1acce4537c4e2f5889ed9ba9b8eddb80d99820;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

mm: Only flush the TLB when clearing an accessible pte

If ptep_clear_flush() is called to clear a page table entry that is
accessible anyway by the CPU, eg. a _PAGE_PROTNONE page table entry,
there is no need to flush the TLB on remote CPUs.
