      [PARISC] fix vmap flush/invalidate · 8e1964a9
      James Bottomley authored
      On parisc, we never implemented invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() because
      it was unnecessary for the xfs use case.  However, we do need to
      implement an invalidate for the opposite use case (which occurred in a
      recent NFS change) where the user wants to read through the vmap range
      and write via the kernel address.  There's an additional complexity to
      this in that if the page has no userspace mappings, it might have dirty
      cache lines in the kernel (indicated by the PG_dcache_dirty bit).  In
      order to get full coherency, we need to flush these pages through the
      kernel mapping before invalidating the vmap range.
