When we change which PT page we are mapping at a given level then we need to
invalidate any cached mappings further down the tree, otherwise we risk using
them because their offset might match but be based on a different offset
further up the table.

e.g. when remapping first then cur_first_offset and cur_second_offset (which
indicate the currently mapped second and third tables respectively) both become
invalid

v2: Also invalidate cur_first_offset when changing cur_first_page.
    Corrected/clarified commit message, this issue isn't really specific to
    superpages, they just happen to expose it.
