arm64: avoid flushing icache multiple times on contiguous HugeTLB
When a contiguous HugeTLB page is mapped, set_pte_at() will be called CONT_PTES/CONT_PMDS times. Therefore, __sync_icache_dcache() will flush cache multiple times if the page is executable (to ensure the I-D cache coherency). However, the first flushing cache already covers subsequent cache flush operations. So only flusing cache for the head page if it is a HugeTLB page to avoid redundant cache flushing. In the next patch, it is also depends on this change since the tail vmemmap pages of HugeTLB is mapped with read-only meanning only head page struct can be modified.
