Michal Simek 2ee2ff875a microblaze: Support for WB cache
Microblaze version 7.20.d is the first MB version which can be run
on MMU linux. Please do not used previous version because they contain
HW bug.
Based on WB support was necessary to redesign whole cache design.
Microblaze versions from 7.20.a don't need to disable IRQ and cache
before working with them that's why there are special structures for it.

Ilya Loginov 2d4dc890b5 block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages
Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.

The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.

See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.
