From: Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: thp: introduce pmdp_invalidate()

On s390, a valid page table entry must not be changed while it is attached
to any CPU.  So instead of pmd_mknotpresent() and set_pmd_at(), an IDTE
operation would be necessary there.  This patch introduces the
pmdp_invalidate() function, to allow architecture-specific
implementations.
