Anshuman Khandual 6a10e76a56 arm64/mm: Optimize TLB flush in unmap_hotplug_[pmd|pud]_range()
[ Upstream commit ff4c5a0de1 ]

Commit 48478b9f79 ("arm64/mm: Enable batched TLB flush in
unmap_hotplug_range") inadvertently introduced redundant TLB
invalidation when clearing a block entry, resulting in unnecessary
broadcast invalidation on CPUs without support for range-based
invalidation.

Re-introduce the old behaviour, along with some expanded comments to
help people working in this area next time around.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
