We add need_flush here just because it is set by tlb_remove_table() but
it won't actually be checked by anything since arch/arm uses its own
version of tlb_flush_mmu(). But I wouldn't go for #ifdefs in the core
code either.

We should (as a separate patchset) convert arch/arm to generic
mmu_gather. I know Russell had objections in the past but mmu_gather has
evolved since and it's not longer inefficient (I think the only case is
shift_arg_pages but that's pretty much lost in the noise).

For this patch:
