ARM: 5794/1: Flush the D-cache during copy_user_highpage()

The I and D caches for copy-on-write pages on processors with
write-allocate caches become incoherent causing problems on application
relying on CoW for text pages (dynamic linker relocating symbols in a
text page). This patch flushes the D-cache for such pages.
