[ Upstream commit 8f53f9c0f68ab2168f637494b9e24034899c1310 ]

With a 64K page size flush with start and end:

  (start, end) = (721f680d0000, 721f680e0000)

results in:

  (hstart, hend) = (721f68200000, 721f68000000)

ie. hstart is above hend, which indicates no huge page flush is
needed.

However the current logic incorrectly sets hflush = true in this case,
because hstart != hend.

That causes us to call __tlbie_va_range() passing hstart/hend, to do a
huge page flush even though we don't need to. __tlbie_va_range() will
skip the actual tlbie operation for start > end. But it will still end
up calling fixup_tlbie_va_range() and doing the TLB fixups in there,
which is harmless but unnecessary work.
