4.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andrey Ryabinin <a.ryabi...@samsung.com>

commit 241d2c54c62fa0939fc9a9512b48ac3434e90a89 upstream.

load_cr3() doesn't cause tlb_flush if PGE enabled.

This may cause tons of false positive reports spamming the
kernel to death.

To fix this __flush_tlb_all() should be called explicitly
after CR3 changed.
