Gaah. It's the odd MMU_GATHER_NO_RANGE architectures - alpha, m68k,
microblaze, nios2 and openrisc.
We should probably get rid of that oddity, and force everybody to have
the ranged tlb flush functions, but for now the trivial patch is to
just remove the left-over dummy tlb_update_vma_flags() from that case,
I think.
Trivial patch attached. I don't have any cross-compiler for those
architectures on my machine, but I suspect I'll just commit it as-is
even without testing, since it can't be worse than what the situation
is right now with that "redefinition of 'tlb_update_vma_flags'"
But if you can verify, that would be lovely.
