Subject: [PATCH 3.12 32/63] arm64: kvm: use inner-shareable barriers for inner-shareable maintenance

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit ee9e101c11478680d579bd20bb38a4d3e2514fe3 upstream.

In order to ensure completion of inner-shareable maintenance instructions
(cache and TLB) on AArch64, we can use the -ish suffix to the dsb
instruction.

This patch relaxes our dsb sy instructions to dsb ish where possible.
