Huang Ying f00230ff84 mm,do_huge_pmd_numa_page: remove unnecessary TLB flushing code 
Before commit c5b5a3dd2c ("mm: thp: refactor NUMA fault handling"), the
TLB flushing is done in do_huge_pmd_numa_page() itself via
flush_tlb_range().

But after commit c5b5a3dd2c ("mm: thp: refactor NUMA fault handling"),
the TLB flushing is done in migrate_pages() as in the following code path
anyway.

do_huge_pmd_numa_page
  migrate_misplaced_page
    migrate_pages

So now, the TLB flushing code in do_huge_pmd_numa_page() becomes
unnecessary.  So the code is deleted in this patch to simplify the code.
This is only code cleanup, there's no visible performance difference.

The mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() in do_huge_pmd_numa_page() is
deleted too.  Because migrate_pages() takes care of that too when CPU
TLB is flushed.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
