Hi guys !

This is still used anywhere ? I see that we have
__HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MKDIRTY on ppc64 but no actual implementation for it
and nobody either uses ptep_mkdirty of #ifdef on the macro...

Actually, there's a default implementation in asm-generic, I didn't see
it because a patch from DaveM I'm toying with is removing it ;)

The fact stays that it's not used anywhere and I'd like to remove it
