[PATCH v2 1/3] x86/mm: Remove flush_tlb() and flush_tlb_current_task()

Show all headers | View raw

I was trying to figure out what how flush_tlb_current_task() would
possibly work correctly if current->mm != current->active_mm, but I
realized I could spare myself the effort: it has no callers except
the unused flush_tlb() macro.  In fact, it doesn't even exist on
!SMP builds.
