[PATCH v6 1/2] arm64: Implement page table free interfaces

Wed Mar 28 03:58:50 PDT 2018


Implement pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page().

Implementation requires,
 1) Clearing off the current pud/pmd entry
 2) Invalidate TLB which could have previously
    valid but not stale entry
 3) Freeing of the un-used next level page tables

>From V5->V6:
 - Removed extra bool parameter 'tlb_inv'
 - Doing pmd/pud TLB invalidation with __flush_tlb_kernel_pgtable()
