Subject: [RFC PATCH 5/7] lazy tlb: introduce lazy mm refcount helper functions
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2020 11:56:44 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200710015646.2020871-6-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200710015646.2020871-1-npiggin@gmail.com>

Add explicit _lazy_tlb annotated functions for lazy mm refcounting.
This makes things a bit more explicit, and allows explicit refcounting
to be removed if it is not used.
