Can’t pmdp_collapse_flush() have one additional argument “freed_tables”
that it would propagate, for instance on x86 to flush_tlb_mm_range() ?
Then you would not need tlb_remove_table_sync_one() to issue an additional
IPI, no?

It just seems that you might still have 2 IPIs in many cases instead of
one, and unless I am missing something, I don’t see why.
