[PATCH] isp1760: Flush the D-cache for the pipe-in transfer buffers

From: Catalin Marinas
Date: Tue Feb 02 2010 - 06:11:48 EST


When the HDC driver writes the data to the transfer buffers it pollutes
the D-cache (unlike DMA drivers where the device writes the data). If
the corresponding pages get mapped into user space, there are no
additional cache flushing operations performed and this causes random
user space faults on architectures with separate I and D caches
(Harvard) or those with aliasing D-cache.
