Subject[ 01/13] ARM: 7755/1: handle user space mapped pages in flush_kernel_dcache_page
Date
3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Simon Baatz <gmbnomis@gmail.com>

commit 1bc39742aab09248169ef9d3727c9def3528b3f3 upstream.

Commit f8b63c1 made flush_kernel_dcache_page a no-op assuming that
the pages it needs to handle are kernel mapped only. However, for
example when doing direct I/O, pages with user space mappings may
occur.

Thus, continue to do lazy flushing if there are no user space
mappings. Otherwise, flush the kernel cache lines directly.
