Benjamin Berg bcf3d957c6 um: refactor TLB update handling
Conceptually, we want the memory mappings to always be up to date and
represent whatever is in the TLB. To ensure that, we need to sync them
over in the userspace case and for the kernel we need to process the
mappings.

The kernel will call flush_tlb_* if page table entries that were valid
before become invalid. Unfortunately, this is not the case if entries
are added.

As such, change both flush_tlb_* and set_ptes to track the memory range
that has to be synchronized. For the kernel, we need to execute a
flush_tlb_kern_* immediately but we can wait for the first page fault in
case of set_ptes. For userspace in contrast we only store that a range
of memory needs to be synced and do so whenever we switch to that
process.
