traces of it from all archs.

- The software page tables for address space 'mm' for virtual
- addresses in the range 'start' to 'end-1' are being torn down.
-
- Some platforms cache the lowest level of the software page tables
- in a linear virtually mapped array, to make TLB miss processing
- more efficient. On such platforms, since the TLB is caching the
- software page table structure, it needs to be flushed when parts
- of the software page table tree are unlinked/freed.
-
- Sparc64 is one example of a platform which does this.
-
- Usually, when munmap()'ing an area of user virtual address
- space, the kernel leaves the page table parts around and just
- marks the individual pte's as invalid. However, if very large
- portions of the address space are unmapped, the kernel frees up
- those portions of the software page tables to prevent potential
- excessive kernel memory usage caused by erratic mmap/mmunmap
- sequences. It is at these times that flush_tlb_pgtables will
- be invoked.
