BTW, why do you want strict coherency for memory mappings?  It's not
something POSIX mandates.  It's not even something that Linux always
did.

Or does, for that matter, on those architectures which have virtually
addressed caches.

Careful with those slurs you're throwing around.  PA-RISC carefully
aligns its mmaps so they are coherent.
