[PATCH 2/2] lazy tlb: consolidate lazy tlb mm switching

Switching a kernel thread using a "lazy tlb mm" to init_mm is a
relatively common sequence that is not quite trivial. Consolidate this
into a function.
This fixes a bug in do_shoot_lazy_tlb() for any arch that implements
finish_arch_post_lock_switch(). None select MMU_LAZY_TLB_SHOOTDOWN at
the moment.
Fixes: 2655421ae69fa ("lazy tlb: shoot lazies, non-refcounting lazy tlb mm reference handling scheme")
