This adds two new variables to mmu_context_t: ctx_id and tlb_gen. ctx_id uniquely identifies the mm_struct and will never be reused. For a given mm_struct (and hence ctx_id), tlb_gen is a monotonic count of the number of times that a TLB flush has been requested. The pair (ctx_id, tlb_gen) can be used as an identifier for TLB flush actions and will be used in subsequent patches to reliably determine whether all needed TLB flushes have occurred on a given CPU. This patch is split out for ease of review. By itself, it has no real effect other than creating and updating the new variables.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
