mm/migrate_device.c: flush TLB while holding PTL

When clearing a PTE the TLB should be flushed whilst still holding the PTL
to avoid a potential race with madvise/munmap/etc.  For example consider
the following sequence:

  CPU0                          CPU1
  ----                          ----

  migrate_vma_collect_pmd()
  pte_unmap_unlock()
                                madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)
                                -> zap_pte_range()
                                pte_offset_map_lock()
                                [ PTE not present, TLB not flushed ]
                                pte_unmap_unlock()
                                [ page is still accessible via stale TLB ]
  flush_tlb_range()

In this case the page may still be accessed via the stale TLB entry after
madvise returns.  Fix this by flushing the TLB while holding the PTL.
