Subject: [PATCH 4.4 25/63] x86/mm: Remove flush_tlb() and flush_tlb_current_task()
Date: Mon,  1 Jan 2018 15:24:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180101140046.774164396@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180101140042.456380281@linuxfoundation.org>

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>

commit 29961b59a51f8c6838a26a45e871a7ed6771809b upstream.

I was trying to figure out what how flush_tlb_current_task() would
possibly work correctly if current->mm != current->active_mm, but I
realized I could spare myself the effort: it has no callers except
the unused flush_tlb() macro.
