With the PG_arch_1 we keep track if the page's data cache is clean,
architecture rely on this property to treat new pages as dirty with
respect to the data cache and perform the flushing before mapping the pages
into userspace.
This patch adds a new architecture hook, arch_clear_hugepage_flags,so that
architectures which rely on the page flags being in a particular state for
fresh allocations can adjust the flags accordingly when a page is freed
into the pool.

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.
