gcc builds it as one asm insn too.
Considering we depend on gcc to be optimal and to update ptes in a
single insn (and if it doesn't we'll corrupt memory), keeping it in C
should always provide the update in a single insn.
I believe the error introduced when mulptiple CPUs of the same NUMA
node step on each other is going to be unmeasurable.
ACK the whole series.
