Currently, during the operations such as a hugepage collapse, KVM would flush the entire VM's context using 'vmalls12e1is' TLBI operation. Specifically, if the VM is faulting on many hugepages (say after dirty-logging), it creates a performance penalty for the guest whose pages have already been faulted earlier as they would have to refill their TLBs again. Instead, call __kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range() for table entries. If the system supports it, only the required range will be flushed. Else, it'll fallback to the previous mechanism.
