Re: [PATCH 5/6] powerpc/mm: Optimize detection of thread local mm's

I'm trying to see if we could merge this patch with what I'm trying to 
do to mark a context as requiring global TLBIs.
In http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/796775/
I'm introducing a 'flags' per memory context, using one bit to say if 
the context needs global TLBIs.
The 2 could co-exist, just checking... Do you think about using the 
actual active_cpus count down the road, or is it just a matter of 
knowing if there are more than one active cpus?

Thanks,

   Fred
