commit07509e10dcupstream. pte_accessible() is used by ptep_clear_flush() to figure out whether TLB invalidation is necessary when unmapping pages for reclaim. Although our implementation is correct according to the architecture, returning true only for valid, young ptes in the absence of racing page-table modifications, this is in fact flawed due to lazy invalidation of old ptes in ptep_clear_flush_young() where we elide the expensive DSB instruction for completing the TLB invalidation. Rather than penalise the aging path, adjust pte_accessible() to return true for any valid pte, even if the access flag is cleared.

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.
