I'm sorry that I'm not sure what "replace them out-right" means.  Do you
mean that I should define flush_*_tlb_range like this?

#define flush_pmd_tlb_range(vma, addr, end)				\
	do {								\
		struct mmu_gather tlb;					\
		tlb_gather_mmu(&tlb, (vma)->vm_mm, addr, end);		\
		tlba.cleared_pmds = 1;					\
		flush_tlb_range(&tlb, vma, addr, end);			\
		tlb_finish_mmu(&tlb, addr, end);			\
	} while (0)


Thanks,
Zhenyu
