Mel Gorman 5b74283ab2 x86, mm: trace when an IPI is about to be sent
When unmapping pages it is necessary to flush the TLB.  If that page was
accessed by another CPU then an IPI is used to flush the remote CPU.  That
is a lot of IPIs if kswapd is scanning and unmapping >100K pages per
second.

There already is a window between when a page is unmapped and when it is
TLB flushed.  This series increases the window so multiple pages can be
flushed using a single IPI.  This should be safe or the kernel is hosed
already.

Patch 1 simply made the rest of the series easier to write as ftrace
        could identify all the senders of TLB flush IPIS.

Patch 2 tracks what CPUs potentially map a PFN and then sends an IPI
        to flush the entire TLB.

Patch 3 tracks when there potentially are writable TLB entries that
        need to be batched differently

Patch 4 increases SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX to further batch flushes

The performance impact is documented in the changelogs but in the optimistic
case on a 4-socket machine the full series reduces interrupts from 900K
interrupts/second to 60K interrupts/second.

This patch (of 4):

It is easy to trace when an IPI is received to flush a TLB but harder to
detect what event sent it.  This patch makes it easy to identify the
source of IPIs being transmitted for TLB flushes on x86.

* Now cpu0 accepts tlb flushes for the new mm.

* 1a4) change cr3.
* 1a5) cpu_clear(cpu, old_mm->cpu_vm_mask);
* Stop ipi delivery for the old mm. This is not synchronized with
* the other cpus, but flush_tlb_func ignore flush ipis for the wrong
* mm, and in the worst case we perform a superfluous tlb flush.
* 1b) thread switch without mm change
* cpu active_mm is correct, cpu0 already handles flush ipis.
* 1b1) set cpu_tlbstate to TLBSTATE_OK
* 1b2) test_and_set the cpu bit in cpu_vm_mask.
* Atomically set the bit [other cpus will start sending flush ipis],
* and test the bit.
* 1b3) if the bit was 0: leave_mm was called, flush the tlb.
* 2) switch %%esp, ie current
*
* The interrupt must handle 2 special cases:
* - cr3 is changed before %%esp, ie. it cannot use current->{active_,}mm.
* - the cpu performs speculative tlb reads, i.e. even if the cpu only
* runs in kernel space, the cpu could load tlb entries for user space
* pages.
*
* The good news is that cpu_tlbstate is local to each cpu, no
* write/read ordering problems.
