[PATCH v2 2/3] LoongArch: Add barrier between set_pte and memory access

[Bibo Mao]

It is possible to return a spurious fault if memory is accessed
right after the pte is set. For user address space, pte is set
in kernel space and memory is accessed in user space, there is
long time for synchronization, no barrier needed. However for
kernel address space, it is possible that memory is accessed
right after the pte is set.

Here flush_cache_vmap/flush_cache_vmap_early is used for
synchronization.
