Additionally it emits an isb() to ensure that any already speculatively determined invalid mapping fault gets canceled. We can improve the performance of vmalloc operations by batching these barriers until the end of a set of entry updates. The newly added arch_update_kernel_mappings_begin() / arch_update_kernel_mappings_end() provide the required hooks. vmalloc improves by up to 30% as a result. A new TIF_ flag is created; TIF_KMAP_UPDATE_ACTIVE tells us if we are in the batch mode and can therefore defer any barriers until the end of the batch.
