Remove flush_tlb_info variables from the stack. This allows to align
flush_tlb_info to cache-line and avoid potentially unnecessary cache
line movements. It also allows to have a fixed virtual-to-physical
translation of the variables, which reduces TLB misses.

Use per-CPU struct for flush_tlb_mm_range() and
flush_tlb_kernel_range(). Add debug assertions to ensure there are
no nested TLB flushes that might overwrite the per-CPU data. For
arch_tlbbatch_flush(), use a const struct.

Results when running a microbenchmarks that performs 10^6 MADV_DONTEED
operations and touching a page, in which 3 additional threads run a
busy-wait loop (5 runs):
