Given that we don't actually do anything with flush_global, let's not work so
hard to pass it down. Especially with something as ugly as GINT_TO_POINTER.
Or indeed, as a cleanup, remove that argument from all callers. If we want to
retain the documentation for the targets, we could do
#define tlb_flush_local tlb_flush
#define tlb_flush_global tlb_flush
