But since we have a couple of references in pgtable.c to
kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range(), wouldn't that be an (linking) issue if we
moved the definition to mmu.c?

ld: error: undefined symbol: __kvm_nvhe_kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range
>>> referenced by pgtable.c:1148 (./arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/../pgtable.c:1148)
>>> arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/kvm_nvhe.o:(__kvm_nvhe_kvm_pgtable_stage2_unmap) in archive vmlinux.a
...

Or is there some other way to make it work?
