So we do not want to allow sleep during call to mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() but some code do not have surrounding mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()/ mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() or mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
This patch serie just make sure that there is at least a call (outside spinlock section) to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() after mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() This fix issue with AMD IOMMU v2 while avoiding to introduce issue for others user of the mmu_notifier API.
