So we do not want to allow sleep during call to mmu_notifier_invalidate_page()
but some code do not have surrounding mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()/
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() or mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()

This patch serie just make sure that there is at least a call (outside spinlock
section) to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() after mmu_notifier_invalidate_page()

This fix issue with AMD IOMMU v2 while avoiding to introduce issue for others
user of the mmu_notifier API. For releavent threads see:
