I guess 'uaddr' refers to a virtual address from the process address
space itself ? Please be more specific.

This subject line and commit message here are misleading. The patch
adds an address argument to arch callback arch_tlbbatch_add_mm() as
arm64 platform could use that to perform the TLB flush batching ?

This patch can be folded into the next one, so that the requirement
for an additional argument 'uaddr' in the arch callback will be self
evident. OR if this is going to be a preparatory patch, then it must
explain how 'uaddr' argument is helpful on platforms like arm64 while
performing TLB flush batching. But TBH, just folding it to next patch
explains the context better.
