Actually, that's incorrect. It was ok in v2 of your patches when I
suggested to drop level 0, just leave the function unchanged but I
missed that you updated it to pass level 3.

pmdp_set_access_flags -> ptep_set_access_flags ->
flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault -> flush_tlb_page -> flush_tlb_page_nosync.
