[PATCH v2 02/11] mm: add pmd_mkclean()

From: Ross Zwisler
Date: Fri Nov 13 2015 - 19:13:14 EST


Currently PMD pages can be dirtied via pmd_mkdirty(), but cannot be
cleaned. For DAX mmap dirty page tracking we need to be able to clean PMD
pages when we flush them to media so that we get a new write fault the next
time the are written to.
