AFAICT there's no reason to do anything different than what we do for
PTEs. Make it so (also affects SH).

What, what, what?

Where did that __HAVE_ARCH_PMDP_GET come from?

I'm not seeing it #define'd anywhere, and we _really_ shouldn't be
doing this any more.

Please just do

    #ifndef pmdp_get
    static inline pmd_t pmdp_get(pmd_t *pmdp)
    ..

and have the architectures that do their own pmdp_get(), just have that

   #define pmdp_get pmdp_get

to let the generic code know about it. Instead of making up a new
__HAVE_ARCH_XYZ name.

That "use the same name for testing" pattern means that it shows up
much nicer when grepping for "where does this come from", but also
means that you really never need to make up new names for "does this
exist".

Copy/paste like from ptep_get(), that has __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_GET (which
does appear to get used, once).

Do I break the pattern and simply leave this off, or do I stay
consistent even though we hate it a little? ;-)

So I've stuck the below on. There's a *TON* more to convert and I'm not
going to be doing that just now (seems like a clever enough script
should be able to), but this gets rid of the new one I introduced.

Subject: mm: Convert __HAVE_ARCH_P..P_GET to the new style
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Tue Nov  1 12:53:18 CET 2022

Since __HAVE_ARCH_* style guards have been depricated in favour of
defining the function name onto itself, convert pxxp_get().

Thanks.

And no, I don't think the churn of converting old cases is worth it. I
just want to discourage *more* of this.

Using the same name really helps when you do a "git grep" for a
symbol, the whole '#ifndef' patterns for alternate architecture
definitions shows up really clearly.

So that - together with not having the possibility of mixing up names
- is the main reason I don't like the ARCH_HAS_XYZ pattern, and much
prefer just using the name of whichever function gets an architecture
override.

                 Linus

PS. I'd love to get an ack/nak on the "mm: delay rmap removal until
after TLB flush" thing.
