Subject: MIPS: Hibernate: flush TLB entries earlier

From: Huacai Chen <[email protected]>

commit a843d00d038b11267279e3b5388222320f9ddc1d upstream.

We found that TLB mismatch not only happens after kernel resume, but also happens during snapshot restore. So move it to the beginning of swsusp_arch_suspend().
