Hi,

This series came out of seemingly naive exceursion into understanding/removing
__ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK from ARC port. With removal of 5LEVEL_HACK some
extraneous code was bein generated

| bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-[AB]*
| add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 3/0 up/down: 130/0 (130)
| function                                     old     new   delta
| free_pgd_range                               548     660    +112
| p4d_clear_bad                                  2      20     +18

Which the patches here elides (for folded p4d/pud/pmd)

| bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-[BF]*
| add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-386 (-386)
| function                                     old     new   delta
| pud_clear_bad                                 20       -     -20
| p4d_clear_bad                                 20       -     -20
| free_pgd_range                               660     314    -346

The code savings are not a whole lot, but still worthwhile IMHO.

Please review, test and apply. It seems to survive my usual battery of
multibench, hakcbench etc.

Thx,
-Vineet

Changes since v1 [1]
 - Per Linus Sugestion remvoed the extra ifdey'ery (hence not
   accumulating Kirill's ACks)
 - Added the RFC patch for pmd_free_tlb() after discussions [2]
 - Also throwing in the ARC patch which started this all (so we get the
   full context of patchset) - I'm ok if this goes via mm tree, should
   be non contentious and can drop this too if Andrew thinks otherwise
