Subject: [PATCH v10 01/12] x86/tlb: add APIs manipulating tlb batch's arch data

A new mechanism, LUF(Lazy Unmap Flush), defers tlb flush until folios
that have been unmapped and freed, eventually get allocated again.  It's
safe for folios that had been mapped read-only and were unmapped, since
the contents of the folios wouldn't change while staying in pcp or buddy
so we can still read the data through the stale tlb entries.

This is a preparation for the mechanism that needs to recognize
read-only tlb entries by separating tlb batch arch data into two, one is
for read-only entries and the other is for writable ones, and merging
those two when needed.

It also optimizes tlb shootdown by skipping CPUs that have already
performed tlb flush needed since.  To support it, added APIs
manipulating arch data for x86.
