There's no need to noMMU to put tlb_flush() in asm/tlbflush.h - it's
part of the tlb shootdown interface. Move it to asm/tlb.h instead, as
per x86.

We need to delay freeing any mapped page on SMP and ARMv7 systems to
ensure that the data is not accessed by other CPUs, or is used for
speculative prefetch with ARMv7. This includes not only mapped pages
but also pages used for the page tables themselves.
This avoids races with the MMU/other CPUs accessing pages after they've
been freed but before we've invalidated the TLB.

mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()
Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture
will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when
freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works.
Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole
virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE
page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry
RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct
entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted,
we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions.
The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks
too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and
almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the
argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

When unmapping N pages (e.g. shared memory) the amount of TLB flushes
done can be (N*PAGE_SIZE/ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE)*N although it should be N at
maximum. With PREEMPT kernel ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE is 8 pages, so there is a
noticeable performance penalty when unmapping a large VMA and the system
is spending its time in flush_tlb_range().
The problem is that tlb_end_vma() is always flushing the full VMA
range. The subrange that needs to be flushed can be calculated by
tlb_remove_tlb_entry(). This approach was suggested by Hugh Dickins,
and is also used by other arches.
The speed increase is roughly 3x for 8M mappings and for larger mappings
even more.

Move platform independent header files to arch/arm/include/asm, leaving
those in asm/arch* and asm/plat* alone.
