Patch series "mm: cleanup clear_not_present_full_ptes()", v2.
While doing some review, I stumbled over clear_not_present_full_ptes() and
concluded that it needs some love.
Let's remove pte_clear_not_present_full() and cleanup
clear_not_present_full_ptes(), renaming it to clear_non_present_ptes().
This patch (of 3):
On sparc64, pte_clear_not_present_full() nowadays does a simple
__set_pte_at(). In __set_pte_at() -> maybe_tlb_batch_add(), we check
pte_accessible() to see whether to call tlb_batch_add().
However, non-present PTEs are surely not accessible, so tlb_batch_add() is
never called and the "full" parameter is irrelevant.
Let's drop the helper and just let common code do a pte_clear().
pte_clear() on sparc64 maps to set_pte_at()->set_ptes()->__set_pte_at()
... so it ends up calling the same function, just with "full=0".
Given that "full" is irrelevant, there is no change.
We added pte_clear_not_present_full() for sparc64 in commit
