I'm unsure about getting rid of the flush_dcache_range. If powerpc needs a flush ARM probably does, too, no? If so, what it the right thing to do? Implement flush_dcache_range for ARM (just wrapping flush_dcache_page?)?On ARM, we assume all new pages have dirty dcache, which allows us to neatly end the ever-increasing quantity of drivers which need to be patched to work on ARM. PowerPC doesn't do this.
Unless I'm missing something the cache flushed here isn't necessarily for a new page. (And even if the flush isn't needed here for ARM, not having flush_dcache_range results in #ifdefs for each user of it. So a definition would be nice, wouldn't it?)
