Subject: [PATCH v6 04/13] riscv: mm: Broadcast kernel TLB flushes only when needed

__flush_tlb_range() avoids broadcasting TLB flushes when an mm context
is only active on the local CPU. Apply this same optimization to TLB
flushes of kernel memory when only one CPU is online. This check can be
constant-folded when SMP is disabled.
