Oh, were you worried that the act of sending the IPIs widens the window
vs. just doing the local flush?  We definitely do the
smp_call_function() dance *before* we do the local TLB invalidation in
in on_each_cpu().

But, the existing flush was not a "true" fix anyway.  It just tended to
work around things.

If the issue pops back up, I'd prefer that we just do:

	__flush_tlb_all();
	flush_tlb_all();

Preferably with an actual model/family check for the "AAH41" workaround.
 The real value of what you did was moving the flush_tlb_all() closer,
and that remains either way.
