Patch 3 included:

-#define pte_free_tlb(tlb, ptep, address)                       \
-       do {                                                    \
-               tlb->need_flush = 1;                            \
-               __pte_free_tlb(tlb, ptep, address);             \
+#define pte_free_tlb(tlb, ptep, address)                                       \
+       do {                                                                    \
+               tlb->need_flush = 1;                                            \
+               tlb_track_range(tlb, address, pmd_addr_end(address, TASK_SIZE));\
+               __pte_free_tlb(tlb, ptep, address);                             \
        } while (0)
