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.
