[PATCH 0/6] Memory corruption may occur due to incorrent tlb flush

[Santosh Sivaraj]

The TLB flush optimisation (a46cc7a90f: powerpc/mm/radix: Improve TLB/PWC
flushes) may result in random memory corruption. Any concurrent page-table walk
could end up with a Use-after-Free. Even on UP this might give issues, since
mmu_gather is preemptible these days. An interrupt or preempted task accessing
user pages might stumble into the free page if the hardware caches page
directories.

The series is a backport of the fix sent by Peter [1].

The first three patches are dependencies for the last patch (avoid potential
double flush). If the performance impact due to double flush is considered
trivial then the first three patches and last patch may be dropped.

This is only for v4.19 stable.
