linux-user: Fix stale tbs after mmap
If we execute linux-user code that does the following:
* A = mmap()
* execute code in A
* munmap(A)
* B = mmap(), but mmap returns the same address as A
* execute code in B
we end up executing a stale cached tb that contains translated code
from A, while we want new code from B.
This patch adds a TB flush for mmap'ed regions, before we return them,
avoiding the whole issue. It also adds a flush for munmap, so that we
don't execute stale TBs instead of getting a segfault.
