Subject: smaps: flush tlb only once for each vma
From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>

Flush the entire user address space from the TLB for each VMA in the
task_struct list when clearing reference bits with /proc/pid/clear_refs. 
It's more efficient than flushing each page individually depending on
pte_young().
