    zap_pte_range: update addr when forcing flush after TLB batching faiure · ce9ec37b

    When unmapping a range of pages in zap_pte_range, the page being
    unmapped is added to an mmu_gather_batch structure for asynchronous
    freeing. If we run out of space in the batch structure before the range
    has been completely unmapped, then we break out of the loop, force a
    TLB flush and free the pages that we have batched so far. If there are
    further pages to unmap, then we resume the loop where we left off.
    
    Unfortunately, we forget to update addr when we break out of the loop,
    which causes us to truncate the range being invalidated as the end
    address is exclusive. When we re-enter the loop at the same address, the
    page has already been freed and the pte_present test will fail, meaning
    that we do not reconsider the address for invalidation.
    
    This patch fixes the problem by incrementing addr by the PAGE_SIZE
    before breaking out of the loop on batch failure.
