I don't know how kmap_flush_unused is really fast path so how my nitpick
is effective. Anyway,
What problem happens if we do following as?

lock()
index = flush_all_zero_pkmaps();
if (index != PKMAP_INVALID_INDEX)
        last_pkmap_nr = index;
unlock();

Normally, last_pkmap_nr is increased with searching empty slot in
map_new_virtual. So I expect return value of flush_all_zero_pkmaps
in kmap_flush_unused normally become either less than last_pkmap_nr
or last_pkmap_nr + 1.
