[PATCH v3 11/17] x86: pgtable: move pagetable_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()

Subsystem: mmu gather and tlb invalidation, paravirt_ops interface, the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit), x86 mm · Maintainers: Will Deacon, "Aneesh Kumar K.V", Andrew Morton, Nick Piggin, Peter Zijlstra, Juergen Gross, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen, Andy Lutomirski

Move pagetable_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table(), so that ptlock and page
table pages can be freed together (regardless of whether RCU is used).
This prevents the use-after-free problem where the ptlock is freed
immediately but the page table pages is freed later via RCU.

Page tables shouldn't have swap cache, so use pagetable_free() instead of
free_page_and_swap_cache() to free page table pages.
