3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Steve Capper <[email protected]> commit 923b8f5044da753e4985ab15c1374ced2cdf616c upstream. The __sync_icache_dcache routine will only flush the dcache for the first page of a compound page, potentially leading to stale icache data residing further on in a hugetlb page. This patch addresses this issue by taking into consideration the order of the page when flushing the dcache.
