From c01778001a4f5ad9c62d882776235f3f31922fdd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2010 15:57:36 +0100 Subject: ARM: 6379/1: Assume new page cache pages have dirty D-cache There are places in Linux where writes to newly allocated page cache pages happen without a subsequent call to flush_dcache_page() (several PIO drivers including USB HCD). This patch changes the meaning of PG_arch_1 to be PG_dcache_clean and always flush the D-cache for a newly mapped page in update_mmu_cache(). The patch also sets the PG_arch_1 bit in the DMA cache maintenance function to avoid additional cache flushing in update_mmu_cache().
