Currently FreeBSD uses IPI based TLB flushing for remote TLB flushing.
Hyper-V allows hypercalls to flush local and remote TLB. The use of
Hyper-V hypercalls gives significant performance improvement in TLB operations.
This patch set during test has shown near to 40 percent
performance improvement.
Also this patch adds rep hypercall implementation as well.
