[PATCH v3 1/2] x86/pv: Drop FLUSH_TLB_GLOBAL in do_mmu_update() for XPTI

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

c/s 9d1d31ad9498 "x86: slightly reduce Meltdown band-aid overhead" removed the
use of Global TLB flushes on the Xen entry path, but added a FLUSH_TLB_GLOBAL
to the L4 path in do_mmu_update().

However, this was unnecessary.

The L4 resync will pick up any new mappings created by the L4 change.  Any
changes to existing mappings are the guests responsibility to flush, and if
one is needed, an MMUEXT_OP hypercall will follow.

This is (not really) XSA-286 (but necessary to simplify the logic).

Fixes: 9d1d31ad9498 ("x86: slightly reduce Meltdown band-aid overhead")
