x86/uv: Update the UV3 TLB shootdown logic
Update of TLB shootdown code for UV3. Kernel function native_flush_tlb_others() calls uv_flush_tlb_others() on UV to invalidate tlb page definitions on remote cpus. The UV systems have a hardware 'broadcast assist unit' which can be used to broadcast shootdown messages to all cpu's of selected nodes. The behavior of the BAU has changed only slightly with UV3: - UV3 is recognized with is_uv3_hub(). - UV2 functions and structures (uv2_xxx) are in most cases simply renamed to uv2_3_xxx. - Some UV2 error workarounds are not needed for UV3.
