[ARM] Resolve fuse and direct-IO failures due to missing cache flushes
fuse does not work on ARM due to cache incoherency issues - fuse wants to use get_user_pages() to copy data from the current process into kernel space. However, since this accesses userspace via the kernel mapping, the kernel mapping can be out of date wrt data written to userspace. This can lead to unpredictable behaviour (in the case of fuse) or data corruption for direct-IO. This resolves debian bug #402876 Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
