just borrowed a haswell laptop and run the munmap case on this. :)
The cpu is 2 core * HT. The test show tlb_flushall_shift = 1 has best
performance.
tlb_flushall_shift is 1

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tlb/tlb_flushall_shift: add haswell tlb_flush_shift
Tested on i5 4350U with munmap case, https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
The best performance is tlb_flush_shift = 1.
The balance point is 256 entries.
