Subject: libata: don't flush dcache on slab pages
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3842e835490cdf17013b30a788f6311bdcfd0571;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

libata: don't flush dcache on slab pages

page_mapping() check this via VM_BUG_ON(PageSlab(page)) so we bug here
with the according debuging turned on.

Future TODO: replace this with a flush_dcache_page_for_pio() API
