- Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: fix cache flushing for highmem pages
- Most cache flush ops were no-op for highmem pages. This led to nasty
- segfaults and (in the case of page_address(page) == NULL) kernel
- crashes.
- Fix this by always flushing highmem pages using kmap/kunmap_atomic
- around the actual cache flush. This might be a bit inefficient, but at
- least it's stable.
