[PATCH -next 3/3] mm: select HAVE_MOVE_PMD in x86 for faster mremap

From: Joel Fernandes <hidden>
Date: 2018-11-03 04:00:57
Also in: kvmarm, linux-alpha, linux-mips, linux-mm, linux-riscv, linux-um
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

From: "Joel Fernandes (Google)" <redacted>

Moving page-tables at the PMD-level on x86 is known to be safe. Enable
this option so that we can do fast mremap when possible.
