Before above patch, I also added the IVB EP cpu tlb_flushall_shift. testing
show the best performance at 2. The box has 12 core * HT * 2S.
test command
#for t in `echo 12 24 48 96`; do
echo "=============== t = $t ";
for i in `echo 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 `; do
sudo ./munmap -t $t -n $i;
done
done
detailed result as following:

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86/tlb_flushall_shift: add Ivybridge EP CPU support
Tested with munmap.c on Ivybridge EP 2S machine, the best shift value is
2, that means when the tlb flush entries less than 64, single invlpg has
performance benefit on this machine.
The testcase come from: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
Results show it has about 5% to 30% performance increase.
