[PATCH v4 2/6] dax: fix cache flush on PMD-mapped pages

From: Muchun Song
Date: Wed Mar 02 2022 - 03:29:32 EST


The flush_cache_page() only remove a PAGE_SIZE sized range from the cache.
However, it does not cover the full pages in a THP except a head page.
Replace it with flush_cache_range() to fix this issue.

Fixes: f729c8c9b24f ("dax: wrprotect pmd_t in dax_mapping_entry_mkclean")
