x86/mm/tlb: Only trim the mm_cpumask once a second
[ Upstream commit 6db2526c1d694c91c6e05e2f186c085e9460f202 ]
Setting and clearing CPU bits in the mm_cpumask is only ever done
by the CPU itself, from the context switch code or the TLB flush
code.
Synchronization is handled by switch_mm_irqs_off() blocking interrupts.
Sending TLB flush IPIs to CPUs that are in the mm_cpumask, but no
longer running the program causes a regression in the will-it-scale
tlbflush2 test. This test is contrived, but a large regression here
might cause a small regression in some real world workload.
Instead of always sending IPIs to CPUs that are in the mm_cpumask,
but no longer running the program, send these IPIs only once a second.
The rest of the time we can skip over CPUs where the loaded_mm is
different from the target mm.
