From 8fc48985006da4ceba24508db64ec77fc0dfe3bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 16:29:08 +0900 Subject: vmalloc: add un/map_kernel_range_noflush() Impact: two more public map/unmap functions Implement map_kernel_range_noflush() and unmap_kernel_range_noflush(). These functions respectively map and unmap address range in kernel VM area but doesn't do any vcache or tlb flushing. These will be used by new percpu allocator.
