[RFC PATCH 0/4] mm: mmu_gather changes to support explicit paging

The first 3 patches in this series are some generic mm changes I
would like to make, including a possible fix which may(?) be needed
for ARM64. Other than the bugfix, these first 3 patches should not
change anything so hopefully they aren't too controversial.

The powerpc patch is also there for reference. 

Thanks,
Nick
