Ok, I'll ping Peter Z. for an ack, iirc he was involved.

Hm, I thought the page table locks we're holding there already prevent any
sleeping, so would be redundant? But reading through code I think that's
not guaranteed, so yeah makes sense to add it for invalidate_range_end
too. I'll respin once I have the ack/nack from scheduler people.
