Subject: [PATCH v2 08/12] mm/pgtable: add pte_free_defer() for pgtable as
 page

Add the generic pte_free_defer(), to call pte_free() via call_rcu().
pte_free_defer() will be called inside khugepaged's retract_page_tables()
loop, where allocating extra memory cannot be relied upon.  This version
suits all those architectures which use an unfragmented page for one page
table (none of whose pte_free()s use the mm arg which was passed to it).
