From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>

Implements optional HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE support for x86.

This is useful for things like Xen and KVM where paravirt tlb flush
means the software page table walkers like GUP-fast cannot rely on
IRQs disabling like regular x86 can.

Not for inclusion - is part of PeterZ's "Unify TLB gather implementations"
