Cc'ing fsdevel + xfs folks as this fixes a regression tests with
XFS with generic/176.

This patch also fixes a regression introduced on linux-next, the same
crash on arch_tlbbatch_flush() is reproducible with fstests generic/176
on XFS. This patch fixes that regression [0]. This should also close out
the syzbot crash too [1]
