FWIW both arm64 and x86 do this via deactivate_mm().  ISTR there's some
case where exit_thread() doesn't quite do the right thing but I can't
remember the specifics right now, possibly the vfork() case but ICBW?
In any case like Rick said factoring out the common patterns would be
good, keeping things aligned would support that.
