Hi,

This is v2 of my proposal to move set_memory_* function prototypes out of
cacheflush.h and into their own header file. This came out of a comment
Russell made while reviewing RODATA test cases
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2017-January/480855.html
While the final result of that series was the rodata code was refactored into
its own header file, the set_memory_* APIs are still out of place.

This version refactored the common set_memory_* functions into an asm-generic
header. s390x added some features so it can't just use the asm-generic header.
I debated how much more to try and shove into the asm-generic version (e.g.
stub prototypes for the ARM nommu case, set_kernel_text_*) but decided to stick
with just the basics for this version.

I split out the cacheflush.h -> set_memory.h conversions into separate patches
to hopefully make merging easier. Worst case, the final patch to completely
separate the two can be delayed if there are more problems found. I'd like
for this to eventually go through the -mm tree so I'd like Acks where
appropriate.

As always, feedback appreciated.

For the s390 bits:
