If flush_end ends up being at or above 1 page before the end of
memory, the following calculation can overflow:
f->flush_end = f->flush_start + PAGE_SIZE;
x86_64 has a 2MB hole at the end of memory, so we don't expect
this to be possible there. On i386, I believe this page is in
the fixmap, and we never use this code there. We only do _local_
tlb flushes.
Either way, just fall back to a full tlb flush and spit out a
warning if we ever run in to this.

We calculate nr_pages with f->flush_end and f->flush_start, both
of which are virtual addresses. However, we only divide
f->flush_start by PAGE_SIZE, and missed f->flush_end. This patch
adds some parenthesis to catch f->flush_end as well.
nr_pages is only used for a trace point. This should not have
any functional impact other than keeping the trace point from
spitting out garbage for the flush length.
