ARC: [mm] Aliasing VIPT dcache support 2/4
This is the meat of the series which prevents any dcache alias creation by always keeping the U and K mapping of a page congruent. If a mapping already exists, and other tries to access the page, prev one is flushed to physical page (wback+inv) Essentially flush_dcache_page()/copy_user_highpage() create K-mapping of a page, but try to defer flushing, unless U-mapping exist. When page is actually mapped to userspace, update_mmu_cache() flushes the K-mapping (in certain cases this can be optimised out) Additonally flush_cache_mm(), flush_cache_range(), flush_cache_page() handle the puring of stale userspace mappings on exit/munmap... flush_anon_page() handles the existing U-mapping for anon page before kernel reads it via the GUP path. Note that while not complete, this is enough to boot a simple dynamically linked Busybox based rootfs Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
