[PATCH v2 02/11] mm: add pmd_mkclean()

From: Ross Zwisler <hidden>
Date: 2015-11-14 00:06:41
Also in: linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, linux-xfs, lkml, nvdimm
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

Currently PMD pages can be dirtied via pmd_mkdirty(), but cannot be
cleaned.  For DAX mmap dirty page tracking we need to be able to clean PMD
pages when we flush them to media so that we get a new write fault the next
time the are written to.
