[PATCH] i386: PARAVIRT: add flush_tlb_others paravirt_op
This patch adds a pv_op for flush_tlb_others. Linux running on native
hardware uses cross-CPU IPIs to flush the TLB on any CPU which may
have a particular mm's pagetable entries cached in its TLB. This is
inefficient in a paravirtualized environment, since the hypervisor
knows which real CPUs actually contain cached mappings, which may be a
small subset of a guest's VCPUs.
