[PATCH] mm: tlb_is_full_mm was obscure
tlb_is_full_mm? What does that mean? The TLB is full? No, it means that the mm's last user has gone and the whole mm is being torn down. And it's an inline function because sparc64 uses a different (slightly better) "tlb_frozen" name for the flag others call "fullmm". And now the ptep_get_and_clear_full macro used in zap_pte_range refers directly to tlb->fullmm, which would be wrong for sparc64. Rather than correct that, I'd prefer to scrap tlb_is_full_mm altogether, and change sparc64 to just use the same poor name as everyone else - is that okay?
