Well, not pagetable_dtor(), but rather pagetable_pte_dtor() and
not to __tlb_remove_table(), but to pagetable_pte_dtor_free() ;)

So similarly, also move the pagetable_dtor() of
PMD|PUD|P4D to __tlb_remove_table(). This prevents the use-after-free
problem where the ptlock is freed immediately but the page table pages
is freed later via RCU.

By the way, rename pagetable_pte_dtor_free() to pagetable_dtor_free().

This is not just a random rename, but rather a result of unifying
PxD and PTE TLB free paths.

Could you please come up with a better wording concerning the above?

Sorry about that. Will modify it as you said above.

You also did not CC linux-s390@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for other patches
that affect s390 sources. Just CC the whole series, please.

Got it, will CC linux-s390@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for the whole series in
v3.

Thanks!


Thanks!
