Hugh Dickins feda5c393a mm/pgtable: delete pmd_trans_unstable() and friends
Delete pmd_trans_unstable, pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() and
pmd_devmap_trans_unstable(), all now unused.

With mixed feelings, delete all the comments on pmd_trans_unstable(). 
That was very good documentation of a subtle state, and this series does
not even eliminate that state: but rather, normalizes and extends it,
asking pte_offset_map[_lock]() callers to anticipate failure, without
regard for whether mmap_read_lock() or mmap_write_lock() is held.

Retain pud_trans_unstable(), which has one use in __handle_mm_fault(), but
delete its equivalent pud_none_or_trans_huge_or_dev_or_clear_bad().  While
there, move the default arch_needs_pgtable_deposit() definition up near
where pgtable_trans_huge_deposit() and withdraw() are declared.

README

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.
