likely that you will need to flush the instruction cache
for copy_to_user_page().

void flush_anon_page(struct page *page, unsigned long vmaddr)
When the kernel needs to access the contents of an anonymous
page, it calls this function (currently only
get_user_pages()). Note: flush_dcache_page() deliberately
doesn't work for an anonymous page. The default
implementation is a nop (and should remain so for all coherent
architectures). For incoherent architectures, it should flush
the cache of the page at vmaddr in the current user process.

void flush_kernel_dcache_page(struct page *page)
When the kernel needs to modify a user page is has obtained
with kmap, it calls this function after all modifications are
complete (but before kunmapping it) to bring the underlying
page up to date. It is assumed here that the user has no
incoherent cached copies (i.e. the original page was obtained
from a mechanism like get_user_pages()). The default
implementation is a nop and should remain so on all coherent
architectures. On incoherent architectures, this should flush
the kernel cache for page (using page_address(page)).


void flush_icache_range(unsigned long start, unsigned long end)
When the kernel stores into addresses that it will execute
out of (eg when loading modules), this function is called.
