Subject: x86/mm: TLB_REMOTE_SEND_IPI should count pages

From: Nadav Amit <[email protected]>

commit 18c98243ddf05a1827ad2c359c5ac051101e7ff7 upstream.

TLB_REMOTE_SEND_IPI was recently introduced, but it counts bytes instead of pages. In addition, it does not report correctly the case in which flush_tlb_page flushes a page. Fix it to be consistent with other TLB counters.
