MIPS: smp: optimization for flush_tlb_mm when exiting
When process exits or execute new binary, it will call function
exit_mmap with old mm, there is such function call trace:
exit_mmap(struct mm_struct *mm)
--> tlb_finish_mmu(&tlb, 0, -1)
--> arch_tlb_finish_mmu(tlb, start, end, force)
--> tlb_flush_mmu(tlb);
--> tlb_flush(struct mmu_gather *tlb)
--> flush_tlb_mm(tlb->mm)
It is not necessary to flush tlb since oldmm is not used anymore
by the process, there is similar operations on IA64/ARM64 etc,
this patch adds such optimization on MIPS.
