Subject: x86/mm: Use INVPCID for __native_flush_tlb_single()
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 6cff64b86aaaa07f89f50498055a20e45754b0c1 upstream.
This uses INVPCID to shoot down individual lines of the user mapping
instead of marking the entire user map as invalid. This
could/might/possibly be faster.
This for sure needs tlb_single_page_flush_ceiling to be redetermined;
esp. since INVPCID is _slow_.
A detailed performance analysis is available here:
