Patch series "elide extraneous generated code for folded p4d/pud/pmd", v3. This series came out of seemingly benign excursion into understanding/removing __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK from ARC port showing some extraneous code being generated despite folded p4d/pud/pmd | bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-[AB]* | add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 3/0 up/down: 130/0 (130) | function old new delta | free_pgd_range 548 660 +112 | p4d_clear_bad 2 20 +18 The patches here address that | bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-[BF]* | add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-386 (-386) | function old new delta | pud_clear_bad 20 - -20 | p4d_clear_bad 20 - -20 | free_pgd_range 660 314 -346 The code savings are not a whole lot, but still worthwhile IMHO. This patch (of 5): With paging code made 5-level compliant, this is no longer needed. ARC has software page walker with 2 lookup levels (pgd -> pte) This was expected to be non functional change but ended with slight code bloat due to needless inclusions of p*d_free_tlb() macros which will be addressed in further patches. | bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-[AB]* | add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 2/0 up/down: 128/0 (128) | function old new delta | free_pgd_range 546 656 +110 | p4d_clear_bad 2 20 +18 | Total: Before=4137148, After=4137276, chg 0.000000% Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191016162400.14796-2-vgupta@synopsys.com Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.
