I'm going to assume you'll take these 3 patches through the powerpc tree for convenience, a few small nits, but otherwise ACK on the lot. On Wed, Dec 18, 2019 at 11:05:28AM +0530, Aneesh Kumar K.V wrote:
A follow up patch is going to make sure we correctly invalidate page walk cache before we free page table pages. In order to keep things simple enable RCU_TABLE_FREE even for !SMP so that we don't have to fixup the !SMP case differently in the followup patch
Perhaps more clearly state that !SMP is broken for Radix/PWC. The above sorta implies it is, but it's not spelled out in any detail.
