From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijls...@chello.nl>
For normal systems we need a TLB invalidate before freeing the
page-tables, the generic RCU based page-table freeing code lacked
this.
This is because this code originally came from ppc where the hardware
never walks the linux page-tables and thus this invalidate is not
required.
Others, notably s390 which ran into this problem in cd94154cc6a
("[S390] fix tlb flushing for page table pages"), do very much need
this TLB invalidation.
Therefore add it, with a Kconfig option to disable it so as to not
unduly slow down PPC and SPARC64 which neither of them need it.
