    drm: Avoid the double clflush on the last cache line in drm_clflush_virt_range()

I'm stumped. Looking at the loop we should be iterating over every cache
line until we reach the start of the cacheline after the end of the
virtual range. Evidence says otherwise.

More bizarely, I stored the last address to be clflushed and found it to
be equal to the start of the cacheline containing the last byte. Doubly
purplexed.

Hm, I can't see how could this make any difference. The old way still
looks ok to me and the new version would flush the exact same cache
lines as the old one using the same addresses (beginning of each cache
line).
