Subject: [PATCH 4.9 017/119] sparc64: combine activate_mm and switch_mm

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Pavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@...cle.com>


[ Upstream commit 14d0334c6748ff2aedb3f2f7fdc51ee90a9b54e7 ]

The only difference between these two functions is that in activate_mm we
unconditionally flush context. However, there is no need to keep this
difference after fixing a bug where cpumask was not reset on a wrap. So, in
this patch we combine these.
