This came up when removing __ARCH_HAS_5LEVEL_HACK for ARC as code bloat. With this patch we see the following code reduction. | bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-E-elide-p?d_clear_bad vmlinux-F-elide-pmd_free_tlb | add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-112 (-112) | function old new delta | free_pgd_range 422 310 -112 | Total: Before=4137042, After=4136930, chg -1.000000% Note that pmd folding can be tricky: In 2-level setup (where pmd is conceptually folded) most pmd routines are valid and refer to upper levels. In this patch we can, but see next patch for example where we can't Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191016162400.14796-5-vgupta@synopsys.com Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

README
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.
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.
