x86/tlb: fall back to flush all when meet a THP large page
We don't need to flush large pages by PAGE_SIZE step, that just waste
time. and actually, large page don't need 'invlpg' optimizing according
to our micro benchmark. So, just flush whole TLB is enough for them.
The following result is tested on a 2CPU * 4cores * 2HT NHM EP machine,
with THP 'always' setting.
Multi-thread testing, '-t' paramter is thread number:
