Subject[PATCH 3.10 128/129] arm64: Do not flush the D-cache for anonymous pages
Date
3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

commit 7249b79f6b4cc3c2aa9138dca52e535a4c789107 upstream.

The D-cache on AArch64 is VIPT non-aliasing, so there is no need to
flush it for anonymous pages.
