[RFC PATCH v2 05/12] x86/mm/tlb: Optimize local TLB flushes

[Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>]

While the updated smp infrastructure is capable of running a function on
a single local core, it is not optimized for this case. The multiple
function calls and the indirect branch introduce some overhead, making
local TLB flushes slower than they were before the recent changes.

Before calling the SMP infrastructure, check if only a local TLB flush
is needed to restore the lost performance in this common case. This
requires to check mm_cpumask() another time, but unless this mask is
updated very frequently, this should impact performance negatively.
