Merge branch 'core-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull unified TLB flushing from Ingo Molnar:
"This contains the generic mmu_gather feature from Peter Zijlstra,
which is an all-arch unification of TLB flushing APIs, via the
following (broad) steps:
- enhance the <asm-generic/tlb.h> APIs to cover more arch details
- convert most TLB flushing arch implementations to the generic
<asm-generic/tlb.h> APIs.
- remove leftovers of per arch implementations
After this series every single architecture makes use of the unified
TLB flushing APIs"
