[merged] mm-call-flush_dcache_page-in-memcpy_to_page-and-memzero_page.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm: call flush_dcache_page() in memcpy_to_page() and memzero_page()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-call-flush_dcache_page-in-memcpy_to_page-and-memzero_page.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Subject: mm: call flush_dcache_page() in memcpy_to_page() and memzero_page()

memcpy_to_page and memzero_page can write to arbitrary pages, which could
be in the page cache or in high memory, so call flush_kernel_dcache_pages
to flush the dcache.

This is a problem when using these helpers on dcache challeneged
architectures.  Right now there are just a few users, chances are no
one used the PC floppy dr\u0456ver, the aha1542 driver for an ISA SCSI
HBA, and a few advanced and optional btrfs and ext4 features on those
platforms yet since the conversion.
