Yes it would simplify the patch, i was trying to optimize for the case
where we restore the pte to its original value after ptep_clear_flush()
or ptep_get_and_clear() as in this case there is no need to invalidate
any secondary page table but that's an overkill optimization that just
add too much complexity.
