Maybe I'm missing something but update_mmu_cache behaviour is not 
changed here, it will always call flush_tlb_page as nr == 1, right?

update_mmu_cache_range though will likely call flush_tlb_all: I have to 
admit that I'm wondering why we don't only flush the range of pages 
instead of flushing everything, I'll look into that.
