From: bibo mao <maobibo@loongson.cn>

If there are two threads reading the same memory and tlb miss happens,
one thread fills pte entry, the other reads new pte value during page fault
handling. PTE value may be updated before page faul, so the process need
need update tlb still.

Also this patch define flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault as empty, since it not
necessary to flush the page for all CPUs
