x86/tlb: add tlb_flushall_shift knob into debugfs
kernel will replace cr3 rewrite with invlpg when
tlb_flush_entries <= active_tlb_entries / 2^tlb_flushall_factor
if tlb_flushall_factor is -1, kernel won't do this replacement.
User can modify its value according to specific CPU/applications.
Thanks for Borislav providing the help message of
CONFIG_DEBUG_TLBFLUSH.
