[ARM] 4644/2: fix flush_kern_tlb_range() in module space

Browse source 
For kernel addresses between TASK_SIZE and PAGE_OFFSET,
flush_tlb_kern_range() does not work as would be expected.

The TLB invalidate works with a matching ASID, or on entries marked as
global.  The set_pte_at() macro marks addresses >= PAGE_OFFSET as
global, but not addresses from TASK_SIZE to PAGE_OFFSET, which are
also kernel addresses.

The result is that the entries in this range are not actually
invalidated by flush_tlb_kern_range().

This patch instead marks addresses >= TASK_SIZE as global.
