On torvalds/master:

$git grep TASK_SIZE_MIN
arch/loongarch/include/asm/processor.h:23:#define TASK_SIZE_MIN TASK_SIZE
arch/loongarch/include/asm/processor.h:36:#define TASK_SIZE_MIN TASK_SIZE32
arch/riscv/include/asm/pgtable.h:881:#define TASK_SIZE_MIN      (PGDIR_SIZE_L3 * PTRS_PER_PGD / 2)
arch/riscv/include/asm/pgtable.h:893:#define TASK_SIZE_MIN      TASK_SIZE

I can only see definitions, without any usage, so agreed on removing them.

FWIW:

I would also send a patch for loongarch, since they are in the same boat :)

Thanks!
