We have been a bit too eager in Xen and use system-wide DSBs when this
can be limited to the inner-shareable domain.
Furthermore, the first DSB can be restrict further to only store in the
inner-shareable domain. This is because the DSB is here to ensure
visibility of the update to translation table walks.
Lastly, there are a lack of documentation in most of the TLBs helper.
Rather than trying to update the helpers one by one, this patch
introduce a per-arch macro to generate the TLB helpers. This will be
easier to update the TLBs helper in the future and the documentation.
