    asm-generic/tlb, arch: Provide generic VIPT cache flush · e7fd28a7
    Peter Zijlstra authored
    The one obvious thing SH and ARM want is a sensible default for
    tlb_start_vma(). (also: https://lkml.org/lkml/2004/1/15/6 )
    
    Avoid all VIPT architectures providing their own tlb_start_vma()
    implementation and rely on architectures to provide a no-op
    flush_cache_range() when it is not relevant.
    
    This patch makes tlb_start_vma() default to flush_cache_range(), which
    should be right and sufficient. The only exceptions that I found where
    (oddly):
    
      - m68k-mmu
      - sparc64
      - unicore
    
    Those architectures appear to have flush_cache_range(), but their
    current tlb_start_vma() does not call it.
    
    No change in behavior intended.
