Peter Zijlstra 21e9445911 x86/mm: Optimize RESTORE_CR3
Most NMI/paranoid exceptions will not in fact change pagetables and would
thus not require TLB flushing, however RESTORE_CR3 uses flushing CR3
writes.

Restores to kernel PCIDs can be NOFLUSH, because we explicitly flush the
kernel mappings and now that we track which user PCIDs need flushing we can
avoid those too when possible.

This does mean RESTORE_CR3 needs an additional scratch_reg, luckily both
sites have plenty available.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
