I'm confused, are you saing you're happy to have PowerPC eat the extra
TLB invalidates? I thought you cared about PPC performance :-)
Instead can we do
static inline void tlb_table_invalidate(struct mmu_gather *tlb)
{
#ifndef CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE
* Invalidate page-table caches used by hardware walkers. Then we still

*/
tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly(tlb);
#endif
}
How does that not break ARM/ARM64/s390 and x86 ?
Hmm I missed that usage of RCU_TABLE_NO_INVALIDATE.
Ok I guess we need to revert this change that went upstream this merge
window then

powerpc/mm/book3s64/radix: Use freed_tables instead of need_flush_all
I will review the change closely.
