[RFC PATCH v1 1/6] fs/proc/task_mmu: Fix pte update and tlb maintenance ordering in pagemap_scan_pmd_entry()

[Ryan Roberts]

pagemap_scan_pmd_entry() was previously modifying ptes while in lazy mmu
mode, then performing tlb maintenance for the modified ptes, then
leaving lazy mmu mode. But any pte modifications during lazy mmu mode
may be deferred until arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(), inverting the required
ordering between pte modificaiton and tlb maintenance.

Let's fix that by leaving mmu mode, forcing all the pte updates to be
actioned, before doing the tlb maintenance.

This is a theorectical bug discovered during code review.
