s390/mm: tag normal pages vs pages used in page tables
The ESSA instruction has a new option that allows to tag pages that are not used as a page table. Without the tag the hypervisor has to assume that any guest page could be used in a page table inside the guest. This forces the hypervisor to flush all guest TLB entries whenever a host page table entry is invalidated. With the tag the host can skip the TLB flush if the page is tagged as normal page.
