Fortunately, the follow-up patch is upstream now. It is commit
63384fd0b1509acf522a8a8fcede09087eedb7df (ARM: 7772/1: Fix missing
flush_kernel_dcache_page() for noMMU).

Thus, please add that patch as well. If it is too late to do this, my
suggestion would be to queue both of them together for the next cycle.
