arm64: tlbi: Set MAX_TLBI_OPS to PTRS_PER_PTE
In order to reduce the possibility of soft lock-ups, we bound the maximum number of TLBI operations performed by a single call to flush_tlb_range() to an arbitrary constant of 1024. Whilst this does the job of avoiding lock-ups, we can actually be a bit smarter by defining this as PTRS_PER_PTE. Due to the structure of our page tables, using PTRS_PER_PTE means that an outer loop calling flush_tlb_range() for entire table entries will end up performing just a single TLBI operation for each entry. As an example, mremap()ing a 1GB range mapped using 4k pages now requires only 512 TLBI operations when moving the page tables as opposed to 262144 operations (512*512) when using the current threshold of 1024.
