Aside from the commit above being absolute crap (which did get fixed up, luckily) I would really like to get rid of all arch specific mmu_gather. We can have opt-in bits to the generic code, but the endless back and forth between common and arch code is an utter pain in the arse. And there's only like 4 architectures that still have a custom mmu_gather: - sh - arm - ia64 - s390 sh is trivial, arm seems doable, with a bit of luck we can do 'rm -rf arch/ia64' leaving us with s390. After that everyone uses the common code and we can clean up. > For powerpc, tlb_start_vma is not the right API to use for this because > it wants to deal with different page sizes within a vma. Yes.. I see that. tlb_remove_check_page_size_change() really is a rather ugly thing, it can cause loads of TLB flushes. Do you really _have_ to do that? The way ARM and x86 work is that using INVLPG in a 4K stride is still correct for huge pages, inefficient maybe, but so is flushing every other page because 'sparse' transparant-huge-pages.
