Subject: [patch 3/5]thp: add tlb_remove_pmd_tlb_entry

We have tlb_remove_tlb_entry to indicate a pte tlb flush entry should be
flushed, but not a corresponding API for pmd entry. This isn't a problem so far
because THP is only for x86 currently and tlb_flush() under x86 will flush
entire TLB. But thsi is confusion and could be missed if thp is ported to
other arch.
