[PATCH v2 6/7] alpha: invalidate the local context in flush_tlb_mm()

[Magnus Lindholm <linmag7@gmail.com>]

flush_tlb_mm() has the same caller-CPU omission that was fixed in
flush_tlb_page(): when the target mm is not the calling CPU's active_mm
nothing happens locally, and smp_call_function() handles only the other
CPUs, so this CPU may later reuse the old ASN together with the
translations it still holds.

The active_mm test itself is left alone here. That path calls
flush_tlb_current(), which loads a fresh context through
__load_new_mm_context() rather than issuing a targeted tbi() against
whatever ASN happens to be loaded, so it does not depend on which context
is current.

The uniprocessor implementation in asm/tlbflush.h already has the missing
branch. Counted over a fork-heavy run, flush_tlb_mm() was entered with the
mm not this CPU's active_mm 2934 times, and 632 times while otherwise idle.
