Subject: x86/mm: Build arch/x86/mm/tlb.c even on !SMP
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit e1074888c326038340a1ada9129d679e661f2ea6 upstream.
Currently all of the functions that live in tlb.c are inlined on
!SMP builds. One can debate whether this is a good idea (in many
respects the code in tlb.c is better than the inlined UP code).
Regardless, I want to add code that needs to be built on UP and SMP
kernels and relates to tlb flushing, so arrange for tlb.c to be
compiled unconditionally.
