zap_pte_range loops from @addr to @end. In the middle, if it runs out of
batching slots, TLB entries needs to be flushed for @start to @interim,
NOT @interim to @end.

Since ARC port doesn't use page free batching I can't test it myself but
this seems like the right thing to do.
Observed this when working on a fix for the issue at thread:
        http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-arch/msg21736.html
