Subject: x86/mm: Change the leave_mm() condition for local TLB flushes
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>
commit 59f537c1dea04287165bb11407921e095250dc80 upstream.
On a remote TLB flush, we leave_mm() if we're TLBSTATE_LAZY. For a
local flush_tlb_mm_range(), we leave_mm() if !current->mm. These
are approximately the same condition -- the scheduler sets lazy TLB
mode when switching to a thread with no mm.
I'm about to merge the local and remote flush code, but for ease of
verifying and bisecting the patch, I want the local and remote flush
behavior to match first. This patch changes the local code to match
the remote code.
