[v4 PATCH] riscv: mm: execute local TLB flush after populating vmemmap

The spare_init() calls memmap_populate() many times to create VA to PA
mapping for the VMEMMAP area, where all "struct page" are located once
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is defined. These "struct page" are later
initialized in the zone_sizes_init() function. However, during this
process, no sfence.vma instruction is executed for this VMEMMAP area.
This omission may cause the hart to fail to perform page table walk
because some data related to the address translation is invisible to the
hart. To solve this issue, the local_flush_tlb_kernel_range() is called
right after the spare_init() to execute a sfence.vma instruction for this
VMEMMAP area, ensuring that all data related to the address translation
is visible to the hart.
