Using MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_MULTI doesn't buy us much since the hypervisor

More importantly, using MMUEXT_INVLPG_MULTI may not to invalidate the
guest's address on remote CPU (when, for example, VCPU from another guest
is running there).

Applied to for-linus-4.4, thanks. But given that PVH is experimental
I've dropped the stable Cc.
The reason I want this to go to stable is that I will be removing access
to MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_MULTI and MMUEXT_INVLPG_MULTI to PVH guests in the
hypervisor (as part of merging HVM and PVH hypercall tables) and that
will result in essentially unbootable PVH guests due to warnings flood.
