Subject: unmap_vm_area becomes unmap_kernel_range
From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch renames unmap_vm_area to unmap_kernel_range and makes it take an
explicit range instead of a vm_area struct.  This makes it more versatile
for code that wants to play with kernel page tables outside of the standard
vmalloc area.

 There exists another whole class of cpu cache issues which currently
 require a whole different set of interfaces to handle properly.
