This is an attempt to fix a few different related issues around
switching mm, TLB flushing, and lazy tlb mm handling.
This will require all architectures to eventually move to disabling
irqs over activate_mm, but it's possible we could add another arch
call after irqs are re-enabled for those few which can't do their
entire activation with irqs disabled.
I'd like some feedback on the sparc/powerpc vs kthread_use_mm
problem too.
Thanks,
Nick
