Peter Zijlstra 6137fed082 arch/tlb: Clean up simple architectures
For the architectures that do not implement their own tlb_flush() but
do already use the generic mmu_gather, there are two options:

 1) the platform has an efficient flush_tlb_range() and
    asm-generic/tlb.h doesn't need any overrides at all.

 2) the platform lacks an efficient flush_tlb_range() and
    we select MMU_GATHER_NO_RANGE to minimize full invalidates.

Convert all 'simple' architectures to one of these two forms.

alpha:	    has no range invalidate -> 2
arc:	    already used flush_tlb_range() -> 1
c6x:	    has no range invalidate -> 2
hexagon:    has an efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
            (flush_tlb_mm() is in fact a full range invalidate,
	     so no need to shoot down everything)
m68k:	    has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
microblaze: has no flush_tlb_range() -> 2
mips:	    has efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
	    (even though it currently seems to use flush_tlb_mm())
nds32:	    already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
nios2:	    has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
	    (no limit on range iteration)
openrisc:   has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
	    (no limit on range iteration)
parisc:	    already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
sparc32:    already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
unicore32:  has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
	    (no limit on range iteration)
xtensa:	    has efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1

Note this also fixes a bug in the existing code for a number
platforms. Those platforms that did:

  tlb_end_vma() -> if (!full_mm) flush_tlb_*()
  tlb_flush -> if (full_mm) flush_tlb_mm()

missed the case of shift_arg_pages(), which doesn't have @fullmm set,
nor calls into tlb_*vma(), but still frees page-tables and thus needs
an invalidate. The new code handles this by detecting a non-empty
range, and either issuing the matching range invalidate or a full
invalidate, depending on the capabilities.

No change in behavior intended.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
