Platforms like ARM64 have hareware TLB shootdown broadcast. They
don't maintain mm_cpumask but just send tlbi and related sync
instructions for TLB flush. task's mm_cpumask is normally empty
in this case. We also allow deferred TLB flush on this kind of
platforms.

Here is another option to enable arch's tlbbatch defer
