commitba6f508d0eupstream. Commit:f77084d963"x86/mm/pat: Disable preemption around __flush_tlb_all()" addressed a case where __flush_tlb_all() is called without preemption being disabled. It also left a warning to catch other cases where preemption is not disabled. That warning triggers for the memory hotplug path which is also used for persistent memory enabling: WARNING: CPU: 35 PID: 911 at ./arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h:460 RIP: 0010:__flush_tlb_all+0x1b/0x3a [..] Call Trace: phys_pud_init+0x29c/0x2bb kernel_physical_mapping_init+0xfc/0x219 init_memory_mapping+0x1a5/0x3b0 arch_add_memory+0x2c/0x50 devm_memremap_pages+0x3aa/0x610 pmem_attach_disk+0x585/0x700 [nd_pmem] Andy wondered why a path that can sleep was using __flush_tlb_all() [1] and Dave confirmed the expectation for TLB flush is for modifying / invalidating existing PTE entries, but not initial population [2]. Drop the usage of __flush_tlb_all() in phys_{p4d,pud,pmd}_init() on the expectation that this path is only ever populating empty entries for the linear map. Note, at linear map teardown time there is a call to the all-cpu flush_tlb_all() to invalidate the removed mappings.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
