set_cr3() should already cover the TLB flushing.

Maybe we should drop the flushes in vmx/svm instead?

That's what I unsure about... mmu_load() with flushes sounds reasonable,
set_cr3() with flushes sounds a little more reasonable to me because I think
set_cr3() may shouldn't depends on caller to flush, which seems more direct.
