Subject: [RFC 2/2] arm64: compat: cacheflush syscall: process only pages
 that are in the memory

Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

glibc in ARM 32bit mode calls cacheflush syscall on the whole textrels
section of the relocated binaries. However, relocation usually doesn't
touch all pages of that section, so not all of them are read to memory
when calling this syscall. However flush_cache_user_range() function will
unconditionally touch all pages from the provided range, resulting
additional overhead related to reading all clean pages. Optimize this by
calling flush_cache_user_range() only on the pages that are already in the
memory.
