Thanks for this.

Btw, the patch Subject should say:

"[PATCH] x86, tlb: Fix flush_tlb_mm_range signature"

or

"[PATCH] x86, tlb: Fix non-SMP build warning"

or similar. Having "allnoconfig" in the name is a bit misleading as it
is only one of the reasons why we build a !CONFIG_SMP kernel - this can
happen with a randbuild too. And the hunk below touches the "#ifndef
CONFIG_SMP" part of tlbflush.h...

So, long story short, hpa, can pls you correct this when applying?
