[PATCH v3 13/21] clear_page: add generic clear_user_pages_incoherent()

[Ankur Arora]

Add generic primitives for clear_user_pages_incoherent() and
clear_page_make_coherent().

To ensure that callers don't mix accesses to different types
of address_spaces, annotate clear_user_pages_incoherent()
as taking an __incoherent pointer as argument.

Also add clear_user_highpages_incoherent() which either calls
clear_user_pages_incoherent() or falls back to clear_user_highpages()

Notes:
    clear_user_highpages_incoherent() operates on an __incoherent region
    and expects the caller to call clear_page_make_coherent().
    
    It should, however be taking an __incoherent * as argument -- this it
    does not do because I couldn't see a clean way of doing that with
    highmem. Suggestions?
