Pull arm64 fix from Catalin Marinas:
 "Revert the dropping of the cache invalidation from the arm64
  arch_dma_prep_coherent() as it caused a regression in the
  qcom_q6v5_mss remoteproc driver.

  The driver is already buggy but the original arm64 change made
  the problem obvious. The change will be re-introduced once the
  driver is fixed"

* The architecture only requires a clean to the PoC here in order to
* meet the requirements of the DMA API. However, some vendors (i.e.
* Qualcomm) abuse the DMA API for transferring buffers from the
* non-secure to the secure world, resetting the system if a non-secure
* access shows up after the buffer has been transferred:

* Using clean+invalidate appears to make this issue less likely, but
* the drivers themselves still need fixing as the CPU could issue a
* speculative read from the buffer via the linear mapping irrespective
* of the cache maintenance we use. Once the drivers are fixed, we can
* relax this to a clean operation.
