Currently, during the operations such as a hugepage collapse,
KVM would flush the entire VM's context using 'vmalls12e1is'
TLBI operation. Specifically, if the VM is faulting on many
hugepages (say after dirty-logging), it creates a performance
penalty for the guest whose pages have already been faulted
earlier as they would have to refill their TLBs again.

Instead, leverage kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range() for table entries.
If the system supports it, only the required range will be
flushed. Else, it'll fallback to the previous mechanism.
