[PATCH v6 14/18] arm64/mm: Implement new [get_and_]clear_full_ptes() batch APIs

2024-02-15T10:34:06Z

Optimize the contpte implementation to fix some of the
exit/munmap/dontneed performance regression introduced by the initial
contpte commit. Subsequent patches will solve it entirely.

During exit(), munmap() or madvise(MADV_DONTNEED), mappings must be
cleared. Previously this was done 1 PTE at a time. But the core-mm
supports batched clear via the new [get_and_]clear_full_ptes() APIs. So
let's implement those APIs and for fully covered contpte mappings, we no
longer need to unfold the contpte. This significantly reduces unfolding
operations, reducing the number of tlbis that must be issued.
