Subject: [PATCH 17/97] x86/mm: Clean up inconsistencies when flushing TLB ranges

commit 15aa368255f249df0b2af630c9487bb5471bd7da upstream.

NR_TLB_LOCAL_FLUSH_ALL is not always accounted for correctly and
the comparison with total_vm is done before taking
tlb_flushall_shift into account.  Clean it up.
