Hi Minchan,
arch/arm and arch/arm64 are handled separately.
Could you please split this patch into arm and arm64 versions?

This macro is missing the parameter definition, and will generate a
compile errror when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y

For 32-bit ARM with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=n, we don't have THP support and I noticed
some compiler errors in mm/madvise.c:

CC mm/madvise.o
mm/madvise.c: In function ‘madvise_free_pte_range’:
mm/madvise.c:279:3: error: implicit declaration of function ‘pmdp_get_and_clear’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
orig_pmd = pmdp_get_and_clear(mm, addr, pmd);
^
mm/madvise.c:285:3: error: implicit declaration of function ‘pmd_mkold’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
orig_pmd = pmd_mkold(orig_pmd);
^
mm/madvise.c:286:3: error: implicit declaration of function ‘pmd_mkclean’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
orig_pmd = pmd_mkclean(orig_pmd);
^
mm/madvise.c:288:3: error: implicit declaration of function ‘set_pmd_at’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
set_pmd_at(mm, addr, pmd, orig_pmd);
^
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors
make[1]: *** [mm/madvise.o] Error 1


Cheers,
