commit 1c4664faa38923330d478f046dc743a00c1e2dec upstream.
Before the commit f9ce0be71d1f ("mm: Cleanup faultaround and finish_fault()
codepaths") there was a call to update_mmu_cache in alloc_set_pte that
used to invalidate TLB entry caching invalid PTE that caused a page
fault. That commit removed that call so now invalid TLB entry survives
causing repetitive page faults on the CPU that took the initial fault
until that TLB entry is occasionally evicted. This issue is spotted by
the xtensa TLB sanity checker.
Fix this issue by defining update_mmu_tlb function that flushes TLB entry
for the faulting address.

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.
