arm/arm64: KVM: Invalidate data cache on unmap
Let's assume a guest has created an uncached mapping, and written to that page. Let's also assume that the host uses a cache-coherent IO subsystem. Let's finally assume that the host is under memory pressure and starts to swap things out. Before this "uncached" page is evicted, we need to make sure we invalidate potential speculated, clean cache lines that are sitting there, or the IO subsystem is going to swap out the cached view, loosing the data that has been written directly into memory.
