[PATCH] paravirt: combine flush accessed dirty.patch
Remove ptep_test_and_clear_{dirty|young} from i386, and instead use the dominating functions, ptep_clear_flush_{dirty|young}. This allows the TLB page flush to be contained in the same macro, and allows for an eager optimization - if reading the PTE initially returned dirty/accessed, we can assume the fact that no subsequent update to the PTE which cleared accessed / dirty has occurred, as the only way A/D bits can change without holding the page table lock is if a remote processor clears them. This eliminates an extra branch which came from the generic version of the code, as we know that no other CPU could have cleared the A/D bit, so the flush will always be needed. We still export these two defines, even though we do not actually define the macros in the i386 code: #define __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_TEST_AND_CLEAR_YOUNG #define __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_TEST_AND_CLEAR_DIRTY The reason for this is that the only use of these functions is within the generic clear_flush functions, and we want a strong guarantee that there are no other users of these functions, so we want to prevent the generic code from defining them for us.
