[PATCH 07/18] asm-generic/tlb: Invert HAVE_RCU_TABLE_INVALIDATE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Make issuing a TLB invalidate for page-table pages the normal case.

The reason is twofold:

 - too many invalidates is safer than too few,
 - most architectures use the linux page-tables natively
   and would thus require this.

Make it an opt-out, instead of an opt-in.
