Peter Zijlstra c38116bb94 x86/mm/cpa: Better use CLFLUSHOPT
Currently we issue an MFENCE before and after flushing a range. This
means that if we flush a bunch of single page ranges -- like with the
cpa array, we issue a whole bunch of superfluous MFENCEs.

Reorgainze the code a little to avoid this.
