Subject: [PATCH 00/12] move pagetable_*_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()

Hi all,

As proposed [1] by Peter Zijlstra below, this patch series aims to move
pagetable_*_dtor() into __tlb_remove_table(). This will cleanup pagetable_*_dtor()
a bit and more gracefully fix the UAF issue [2] reported by syzbot.

```
Notably:

 - s390 pud isn't calling the existing pagetable_pud_[cd]tor()
 - none of the p4d things have pagetable_p4d_[cd]tor() (x86,arm64,s390,riscv)
   and they have inconsistent accounting
 - while much of the _ctor calls are in generic code, many of the _dtor
   calls are in arch code for hysterial raisins, this could easily be
   fixed
 - if we fix ptlock_free() to handle NULL, then all the _dtor()
   functions can use it, and we can observe they're all identical
   and can be folded

after all that cleanup, you can move the _dtor from *_free_tlb() into
tlb_remove_table() -- which for the above case, would then have it
called from __tlb_remove_table_free().
```

And hi Andrew, I developed the code based on the latest linux-next, so I reverted
the "mm: pgtable: make ptlock be freed by RCU" first. Once the review of this
patch series is completed, the "mm: pgtable: make ptlock be freed by RCU" can be
dropped directly from mm tree, and this revert patch will not be needed.

This series is based on next-20241213. And I tested this patch series on x86 and
only cross-compiled it on arm[64], powerpc, riscv, s390 and sparc.

Comments and suggestions are welcome!

Thanks,
Qi
