    x86/PV32: avoid TLB flushing after mod_l3_entry()
    
    32-bit guests may not depend upon the side effect of using ordinary
    4-level paging when running on a 64-bit hypervisor. For L3 entry updates
    to take effect, they have to use a CR3 reload. Therefore there's no need
    to issue a paging structure invalidating TLB flush in this case.
