Most of the time, flush_tlb_range() is called on single pages.
At the time being, flush_tlb_range() inconditionnaly calls
flush_tlb_mm() which flushes at least the entire PID pages and on
older CPUs like 4xx or 8xx it flushes the entire TLB table.
This patch calls flush_tlb_page() instead of flush_tlb_mm() when
the range is a single page.
