Rewrite the cache flush code for PA8800/PA8900 CPUs to flush using the virtual
address of user and kernel pages instead of using tmpalias flushes. Testing
showed, that tmpalias flushes don't work reliable on PA8800/PA8900 CPUs.
Fix flush code to allow 32-bit kernels to run on 64-bit capable machines, e.g.
a 32-bit kernel on C3700 machines.

Pull parisc architecture fixes from Helge Deller:
"We had two big outstanding issues after v5.18-rc6:
a) 32-bit kernels on 64-bit machines (e.g. on a C3700 which is able
to run 32- and 64-bit kernels) failed early in userspace.
b) 64-bit kernels on PA8800/PA8900 CPUs (e.g. in a C8000) showed
random userspace segfaults. We assumed that those problems were
caused by the tmpalias flushes.
Dave did a lot of testing and reorganization of the current flush code
and fixed the 32-bit cache flushing. For PA8800/PA8900 CPUs he
switched the code to flush using the virtual address of user and
kernel pages instead of using tmpalias flushes. The tmpalias flushes
don't seem to work reliable on such CPUs.
We tested the patches on a wide range machines (715/64, B160L, C3000,
C3700, C8000, rp3440) and they have been in for-next without any
conflicts.
Summary:
- Rewrite the cache flush code for PA8800/PA8900 CPUs to flush using
the virtual address of user and kernel pages instead of using
tmpalias flushes. Testing showed, that tmpalias flushes don't work
reliably on PA8800/PA8900 CPUs
- Fix flush code to allow 32-bit kernels to run on 64-bit capable
machines, e.g. a 32-bit kernel on C3700 machines"
