2023-03-29lazy tlb: allow lazy tlb mm refcounting to be configurableNicholas Piggin1-0/+6
Add CONFIG_MMU_TLB_REFCOUNT which enables refcounting of the lazy tlb mm when it is context switched. This can be disabled by architectures that don't require this refcounting if they clean up lazy tlb mms when the last refcount is dropped. Currently this is always enabled, so the patch introduces no functional change.

2023-02-02docs/mm: remove useless markupMike Rapoport (IBM)1-2/+0
It is enough to use a file name to cross-reference another rst document. Jon says: The right things will happen in the HTML output, readers of the plain-text will know immediately where to go, and we don't have to add the label clutter. Drop reference markup and unnecessary labels and use plain file names.

2022-06-27docs: rename Documentation/vm to Documentation/mmMike Rapoport1-0/+91
so it will be consistent with code mm directory and with Documentation/admin-guide/mm and won't be confused with virtual machines.
