mm/mmu_gather: invalidate TLB correctly on batch allocation failure and flush
Architectures for which we have hardware walkers of Linux page table
should flush TLB on mmu gather batch allocation failures and batch flush.
Some architectures like POWER supports multiple translation modes (hash
and radix) and in the case of POWER only radix translation mode needs the
above TLBI. This is because for hash translation mode kernel wants to
avoid this extra flush since there are no hardware walkers of linux page
table. With radix translation, the hardware also walks linux page table
and with that, kernel needs to make sure to TLB invalidate page walk cache
before page table pages are freed.
More details in commit d86564a2f085 ("mm/tlb, x86/mm: Support invalidating
TLB caches for RCU_TABLE_FREE")
The changes to sparc are to make sure we keep the old behavior since we
are now removing HAVE_RCU_TABLE_NO_INVALIDATE. The default value for
tlb_needs_table_invalidate is to always force an invalidate and sparc can
avoid the table invalidate. Hence we define tlb_needs_table_invalidate to
false for sparc architecture.
