10 * This handles the mini data cache, as found on SA11x0 and XScale
11 * processors. When we copy a user page page, we map it in such a way
12 * that accesses to this page will not touch the main data cache, but
13 * will be cached in the mini data cache. This prevents us thrashing
14 * the main data cache on page faults.

35 * ARMv4 mini-dcache optimised copy_user_page
37 * We flush the destination cache lines just before we write the data into the
38 * corresponding address. Since the Dcache is read-allocate, this removes the
39 * Dcache aliasing issue. The writes will be forwarded to the write buffer,
40 * and merged as appropriate.
42 * Note: We rely on all ARMv4 processors implementing the "invalidate D line"
43 * instruction. If your processor does not supply this, you have to write your
44 * own copy_user_page that does the right thing.
