On ARM there is a lot of ongoing work on single zImage for multiple

Regarding tlb_fast_mode(), the ARM-specific implementation is always 0
on ARMv7 even if UP because of speculative TLB loads (the MMU could
pretty much act as a separate processor).

Oh right.. I should really refresh the mmu_gather unification patches so
all archs are using the generic code.
