x86/PV32: avoid TLB flushing after mod_l3_entry()

32-bit guests may not depend upon the side effect of using ordinary
4-level paging when running on a 64-bit hypervisor. For L3 entry updates
to take effect, they have to use a CR3 reload. Therefore there's no need
to issue a paging structure invalidating TLB flush in this case.
