sparc64: Reduce TLB flushes during hugepte changes
During hugepage map/unmap, TSB and TLB flushes are currently issued at every PAGE_SIZE'd boundary which is unnecessary. We now issue the flush at REAL_HPAGE_SIZE boundaries only. Without this patch workloads which unmap a large hugepage backed VMA region get CPU lockups due to excessive TLB flush calls.
