Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/4] mm: mmu_notifier fix for tlb_end_vma

From: [email-masked] (Nicholas Piggin)
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2018 00:06:39 +1000

The generic tlb_end_vma does not call invalidate_range mmu notifier,
and it resets resets the mmu_gather range, which means the notifier
won't be called on part of the range in case of an unmap that spans
multiple vmas.

ARM64 seems to be the only arch I could see that has notifiers and
uses the generic tlb_end_vma. I have not actually tested it.
