ARMv8.4-TLBI provides TLBI invalidation instruction that apply to a
range of input addresses. This series add support for this feature.
I tested this feature on a FPGA machine whose cpus support the tlbi range.
As the page num increases, the performance is improved significantly. When
page num = 256, the performance is improved by about 10 times.
Below is the test data when the stride = PTE:
[page num] [classic] [tlbi range]
1 16051 13524
2 11366 11146
3 11582 12171
4 11694 11101
5 12138 12267
6 12290 11105
7 12400 12002
8 12837 11097
9 14791 12140
10 15461 11087
16 18233 11094
32 26983 11079
64 43840 11092
