As message in commit 7df676974359 ("mm/memory.c: Update local TLB
if PTE entry exists") said, we should update local TLB only on the
second thread. So in the do_anonymous_page() here, we should use
update_mmu_tlb() instead of update_mmu_cache() on the second thread.


Maybe mention here "This only affects performance, but not correctness."
