PPC32 also have flush_dcache_range() so it can also support
ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API and ARCH_HAS_UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE without changes.

This didn't build for me, probably due to something that's changed in
the long period between you posting it and me applying it?

corenet32_smp_defconfig:

Looks like arch/powerpc/lib/Makefile only builds pmem.o for ppc64

Moving it from obj64-y to obj-y should do it.

I'll update the patch when I'm back in two weeks unless you can fix it before.
