Sure -- I think that's better.

We don't need to hold a per-mapping lock here, you're right; a per-VMA
lock will do just fine. I'll replace this with a per-VMA lock for the
next version.

Agreed. I'll clean this up.

A TLB flush isn't necessary in the success case -- pages that were
mapped before will continue to be mapped the same way, so the TLB
entries will still be valid. If we're splitting a none P*D, then
there's nothing to flush. If we're splitting a present P*D, then the
flush will come if/when we clear any of the page table entries below
the P*D.
