Try to fold the 64-bit TLB refill handler opportunistically at the
beginning of the vmalloc path so as to avoid splitting execution flow in
half and wasting cycles for a branch required at that point then.  Resort
to doing the split if either of the newly created parts would not fit into
its designated slot.
