But a little different, we use @remap_pte to indicate whether we should go
to the last level (e.g. do the remap), the flag is used to indicate whether
we should flush TLB when splitting is necessary (note that remap also need
split). It means split and non-TLB flush are not bound. Sorry, I just want
to keep the semantics clear.
Thanks.
