08b0b0059b mm: Add flush_dcache_folio()
This is a default implementation which calls flush_dcache_page() on
each page in the folio.  If architectures can do better, they should
implement their own version of it.

f358afc52c mm: remove flush_kernel_dcache_page
flush_kernel_dcache_page is a rather confusing interface that implements a
subset of flush_dcache_page by not being able to properly handle page
cache mapped pages.

The only callers left are in the exec code as all other previous callers
were incorrect as they could have dealt with page cache pages.  Replace
the calls to flush_kernel_dcache_page with calls to flush_dcache_page,
which for all architectures does either exactly the same thing, can
contains one or more of the following:

 1) an optimization to defer the cache flush for page cache pages not
    mapped into userspace
 2) additional flushing for mapped page cache pages if cache aliases
    are possible

4ad0ae8c64 mm/vmalloc: remove unmap_kernel_range
This is a shim around vunmap_range, get rid of it.

Move the main API comment from the _noflush variant to the normal
variant, and make _noflush internal to mm/.

b67177ecd9 mm/vmalloc: remove map_kernel_range
Patch series "mm/vmalloc: cleanup after hugepage series", v2.

Christoph pointed out some overdue cleanups required after the huge
vmalloc series, and I had another failure error message improvement as
well.

This patch (of 5):

This is a shim around vmap_pages_range, get rid of it.

Move the main API comment from the _noflush variant to the normal variant,
and make _noflush internal to mm/.

6455959819 ia64/tlb: Eradicate tlb_migrate_finish() callback
Only ia64-sn2 uses this as an optimization, and there it is of
questionable correctness due to the mm_users==1 test.

Remove it entirely.

No change in behavior intended.
