mm/thp/migration: switch from flush_tlb_range to flush_pmd_tlb_range
We remove one instace of flush_tlb_range here. That was added by commit f714f4f20e59 ("mm: numa: call MMU notifiers on THP migration"). But the pmdp_huge_clear_flush_notify should have done the require flush for us. Hence remove the extra flush.
