    sh: Improve performance of SH4 versions of copy/clear_user_highpage · 39ac11c1
    Stuart Menefy 提交于
    The previous implementation of clear_user_highpage and copy_user_highpage
    checked to see if there was a D-cache aliasing issue between the user
    and kernel mappings of a page, but if there was they always did a
    flush with writeback on the dirtied kernel alias.
    
    However as we now have the ability to map a page into kernel space
    with the same cache colour as the user mapping, there is no need to
    write back this data.
    
    Currently we also invalidate the kernel alias as a precaution, however
    I'm not sure if this is actually required.
    
    Also correct the definition of FIX_CMAP_END so that the mappings created
    by kmap_coherent() are actually at the correct colour.
