Haavard Skinnemoen db71daabad [PATCH] Generic ioremap_page_range: flush_cache_vmap
The existing implementation of ioremap_page_range(), which was taken
from i386, does this:

	flush_cache_all();
	/* modify page tables */
	flush_tlb_all();

I think this is a bit defensive, so this patch changes the generic
implementation to do:

	/* modify page tables */
	flush_cache_vmap(start, end);

instead, which is similar to what vmalloc() does. This should still
be correct because we never modify existing PTEs. According to
James Bottomley:

The problem the flush_tlb_all() is trying to solve is to avoid stale tlb
entries in the ioremap area.  We're just being conservative by flushing
on both map and unmap.  Technically what vmalloc/vfree does (only flush
the tlb on unmap) is just fine because it means that the only tlb
entries in the remap area must belong to in-use mappings.
