Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] send tlb_remove_table_smp_sync IPI only to necessary CPUs
Currently the tlb_remove_table_smp_sync IPI is sent to all CPUs
indiscriminately, this causes unnecessary work and delays notable in
real-time use-cases and isolated cpus.
By limiting the IPI to only be sent to cpus referencing the effected
mm.
a config to differentiate architectures that support mm_cpumask from
those that don't will allow safe usage of this feature.
changes from -v1:
- Previous version included a patch to only send the IPI to CPU's with
context_tracking in the kernel space, this was removed due to race
condition concerns.
- for archs that do not maintain mm_cpumask the mask used should be
cpu_online_mask (Peter Zijlstra).
