A split-only walk can defer the PMD-split flush to a later global flush, and a remap-only walk can defer the final remap flush. However, when a PMD split is followed by PTE remapping, the split flush must happen before the PTEs are changed, because stale large-page translations must not overlap with new small-page translations that map different physical pages. Replace the two flags with a single VMEMMAP_DEFER_TLB_FLUSH flag. The new name reflects that only safely batchable flushes are deferred. Keep split-only walks able to defer the flush, but force the split flush whenever a remap_pte callback is present. Callers that batch HVO work can still defer the final remap flush and issue their own global flush. Current callers keep the same flushing behavior.
