[Andrew Morton]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm: enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for m68k-coldfire
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch.  Its filename is
     mm-enable-mmu_gather_rcu_table_free-for-m68k-coldfire.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-enable-mmu_gather_rcu_table_free-for-m68k-coldfire.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-new branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Note, mm-new is a provisional staging ground for work-in-progress
patches, and acceptance into mm-new is a notification for others take
notice and to finish up reviews.  Please do not hesitate to respond to
review feedback and post updated versions to replace or incrementally
fixup patches in mm-new.

The mm-new branch of mm.git is not included in linux-next

If a few days of testing in mm-new is successful, the patch will me moved
into mm.git's mm-unstable branch, which is included in linux-next

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***

The -mm tree is included into linux-next via various
branches at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
and is updated there most days

Subject: mm: enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for m68k-coldfire
Date: Tue, 08 Sep 2026 13:32:16 +0100

Similar to sun3, the coldfire variant of m68k uses 2-level page tables.

Update its __pte_free_tlb() function to use tlb_remove_ptdesc() in order
that, with CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, page tables are freed under
RCU.

The page tables occupy a page each and have no odd semantics, so this
change suffices to allow enabling of CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for
m68k-coldfire, so do so.

This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this
mode.
