Provide a generic tlb_flush() implementation that relies on flush_tlb_range(). This is a little awkward because flush_tlb_range() assumes a VMA for range invalidation, but we no longer have one. Audit of all flush_tlb_range() implementations shows only vma->vm_mm and vma->vm_flags are used, and of the latter only VM_EXEC (I-TLB invalidates) and VM_HUGETLB (large TLB invalidate) are used. Therefore, track VM_EXEC and VM_HUGETLB in two more bits, and create a 'fake' VMA. This allows architectures that have a reasonably efficient flush_tlb_range() to not require any additional effort. No change in behavior intended.

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.
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.
