commit b67fbebd4cf980aecbcc750e1462128bffe8ae15 upstream.

Some drivers rely on having all VMAs through which a PFN might be accessible listed in the rmap for correctness. However, on X86, it was possible for a VMA with stale TLB entries to not be listed in the rmap.

This was fixed in mainline with commit b67fbebd4cf9 ("mmu_gather: Force tlb-flush VM_PFNMAP vmas"), but that commit relies on preceding refactoring in commit 18ba064e42df3 ("mmu_gather: Let there be one tlb_{start,end}_vma() implementation") and commit 1e9fdf21a4339 ("mmu_gather: Remove per arch tlb_{start,end}_vma()").

This patch provides equivalent protection without needing that refactoring, by forcing a TLB flush between removing PTEs in unmap_vmas() and the call to unlink_file_vma() in free_pgtables().
