Subject: x86/mm: Fix flush_tlb_page() on Xen
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>
commit dbd68d8e84c606673ebbcf15862f8c155fa92326 upstream.
flush_tlb_page() passes a bogus range to flush_tlb_others() and
expects the latter to fix it up. native_flush_tlb_others() has the
fixup but Xen's version doesn't. Move the fixup to
flush_tlb_others().
AFAICS the only real effect is that, without this fix, Xen would
flush everything instead of just the one page on remote vCPUs in
when flush_tlb_page() was called.
