Message

This series is based on next-20220225.

Patch 1-2 fix a cache flush bug, because subsequent patches depend on
those on those changes, there are placed in this series.  Patch 3-4
are preparation for fixing a dax bug in patch 5.  Patch 6 is code cleanup
since the previous patch remove the usage of follow_invalidate_pte().

v7:
- Remove redurant "*" above vma_address() reported by Christoph.
- Fix oops (reported by Qian) on arm64 by using "pmd_present() && pmd_devmap()"
  to workaround the bug in pmd_leaf() on arm64, which is fixed in another
  patch [1].
