For the s390 version of the pmdp_establish function we need the mm to be able
to do the TLB flush correctly. Can we please add a "struct vm_area_struct *vma"
argument to pmdp_establish analog to pmdp_invalidate?

The s390 patch would then look like this:

Subject: [PATCH] s390/mm: add pmdp_establish

Define the pmdp_establish function to replace a pmd entry with a new
one and return the old value.
