On latest Linux kernel (i.e. 5.2-rc1), we get large TLB flush
request for user space addresses (typically, start=x and end=-1).
This is caused by Linux kernel commit a21344dfc6 ("riscv: fix
sbi_remote_sfence_vma{,_asid}").
It's not practical to execute large number of sfence instructions
for a large TLB flush range because it takes too much time and
eventually causes CPU stall in Linux kernel.
This patch addresses above issue by upgrading TLB flush range to
TLB flush all whenever TLB flush range is greater than 1GB.
