mm: Only flush TLBs if a transhuge PMD is modified for NUMA pte scanning
NUMA PTE scanning is expensive both in terms of the scanning itself and the TLB flush if there are any updates. The TLB flush is avoided if no PTEs are updated but there is a bug where transhuge PMDs are considered to be updated even if they were already pmd_numa. This patch addresses the problem and TLB flushes should be reduced.
