Subject: [PATCH 4.4 12/37] kaiser: tidied up kaiser_add/remove_mapping slightly

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

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

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@...gle.com>


Yes, unmap_pud_range_nofree()'s declaration ought to be in a
header file really, but I'm not sure we want to use it anyway:
so for now just declare it inside kaiser_remove_mapping().
And there doesn't seem to be such a thing as unmap_p4d_range(),
even in a 5-level paging tree.
