[PATCH 8/9] x86/tlb: Privatize cpu_tlbstate

From: Nadav Amit
Date: Thu Jun 13 2019 - 12:46:43 EST


cpu_tlbstate is mostly private and only the variable is_lazy is shared.
This causes some false-sharing when TLB flushes are performed.

Break cpu_tlbstate intro cpu_tlbstate and cpu_tlbstate_shared, and mark
each one accordingly.
