    mm: remove flush_kernel_dcache_page · f358afc5
    Christoph Hellwig 提交于
    flush_kernel_dcache_page is a rather confusing interface that implements a
    subset of flush_dcache_page by not being able to properly handle page
    cache mapped pages.
    
    The only callers left are in the exec code as all other previous callers
    were incorrect as they could have dealt with page cache pages.  Replace
    the calls to flush_kernel_dcache_page with calls to flush_dcache_page,
    which for all architectures does either exactly the same thing, can
    contains one or more of the following:
    
     1) an optimization to defer the cache flush for page cache pages not
        mapped into userspace
     2) additional flushing for mapped page cache pages if cache aliases
        are possible
