Hi all,

Some optimizations to the codes:

We flush a single page here, and below loop does the same thing
if cpu not support TLB RANGE feature.  So may we use a goto statement
to simplify the code.
+	while (range_pages > 0) {
+		if (cpus_have_const_cap(ARM64_HAS_TLBI_RANGE) &&
+		    stride == PAGE_SIZE) {
+			num = (range_pages & TLB_RANGE_MASK) - 1;
+			if (num >= 0) {
+				addr = __TLBI_VADDR_RANGE(start, asid, scale,
+							  num, 0);
+				__tlbi_last_level(rvale1is, rvae1is, addr,
+						  last_level);
+				start += __TLBI_RANGE_SIZES(num, scale);
+			}
+			scale++;
+			range_pages >>= TLB_RANGE_MASK_SHIFT;
+			continue;
 		}
+
+		addr = __TLBI_VADDR(start, asid);
+		__tlbi_last_level(vale1is, vae1is, addr, last_level);
+		start += stride;
+		range_pages -= stride >> 12;
 	}
 	dsb(ish);
 }
Just like:

--8<---
	if (range_pages %2 == 1)
		goto flush_single_tlb;

	while (range_pages > 0) {
		if (cpus_have_const_cap(ARM64_HAS_TLBI_RANGE) &&
		    stride == PAGE_SIZE) {
			num = ((range_pages >> 1) & TLB_RANGE_MASK) - 1;
			if (num >= 0) {
				addr = __TLBI_VADDR_RANGE(start, asid, scale,
							  num, 0);
				__tlbi_last_level(rvale1is, rvae1is, addr,
						  last_level);
				start += __TLBI_RANGE_SIZES(num, scale);
			}
			scale++;
			range_pages >>= TLB_RANGE_MASK_SHIFT;
			continue;
		}

flush_single_tlb:
		addr = __TLBI_VADDR(start, asid);
		__tlbi_last_level(vale1is, vae1is, addr, last_level);
		start += stride;
		range_pages -= stride >> PAGE_SHIFT;
	}
--8<---
