Suresh Siddha ad5ca55f6b x86, cpa: srlz cpa(), global flush tlb after splitting big page and before doing cpa
Do a global flush tlb after splitting the large page and before we do the
actual change page attribute in the PTE.

With out this, we violate the TLB application note, which says
    "The TLBs may contain both ordinary and large-page translations for
     a 4-KByte range of linear addresses. This may occur if software
     modifies the paging structures so that the page size used for the
     address range changes. If the two translations differ with respect
     to page frame or attributes (e.g., permissions), processor behavior
     is undefined and may be implementation-specific."

And also serialize cpa() (for !DEBUG_PAGEALLOC which uses large identity
mappings) using cpa_lock. So that we don't allow any other cpu, with stale
large tlb entries change the page attribute in parallel to some other cpu
splitting a large page entry along with changing the attribute.
