From: Steve Capper <[email protected]> ptep_clear_flush_young_notify and pmdp_clear_flush_young_notify both call the notifiers *after* the pte/pmd has been made young.
This can cause problems with KVM that relies on being able to block MMU notifiers when carrying out maintenance of second stage descriptors. This patch ensures that the MMU notifiers are called before ptes and pmds are made old.
