Kinsey Ho 71ce1ab54a mm/mglru: add CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HW_PTE_YOUNG
Patch series "mm/mglru: Kconfig cleanup", v4.

This series is the result of the following discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/47066176-bd93-55dd-c2fa-002299d9e034@linux.ibm.com/

It mainly avoids building the code that walks page tables on CPUs that
use it, i.e., those don't support hardware accessed bit. Specifically,
it introduces a new Kconfig to guard some of functions added by
commit bd74fdaea146 ("mm: multi-gen LRU: support page table walks")
on CPUs like POWER9, on which the series was tested.


This patch (of 5):

Some architectures are able to set the accessed bit in PTEs when PTEs
are used as part of linear address translations.

Add CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HW_PTE_YOUNG for such architectures to be able to
override arch_has_hw_pte_young().

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.
