[PATCH v2] mm: hugetlb: Add missing cache flushing in hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds()

[Baolin Wang]

Missed calling flush_cache_range() before removing the sharing PMD entrires,
otherwise data consistence issue may be occurred on some architectures whose
caches are strict and require a virtual–>physical translation to exist for
a virtual address. Thus add it.

Now no architectures enabling PMD sharing will be affected, since they do
not have a VIVT cache. That means this issue can not be happened in practice
so far.
