pmem: add wb_cache_pmem() to the PMEM API
__arch_wb_cache_pmem() was already an internal implementation detail of the x86 PMEM API, but this functionality needs to be exported as part of the general PMEM API to handle the fsync/msync case for DAX mmaps. One thing worth noting is that we really do want this to be part of the PMEM API as opposed to a stand-alone function like clflush_cache_range() because of ordering restrictions. By having wb_cache_pmem() as part of the PMEM API we can leave it unordered, call it multiple times to write back large amounts of memory, and then order the multiple calls with a single wmb_pmem().
