Subject: [PATCH] [17/36] CPA: CLFLUSH support in change_page_attr()
Queue individual data pages for flushing with CLFLUSH in change_page_attr(),
instead of doing global WBINVDs. WBINVD is a very painful operation
for the CPU (can take msecs) and quite slow too. Worse it is not interruptible
and can cause long latencies on hypervisors on older Intel VT systems.
CLFLUSH on the other hand only flushes the cache lines that actually need to be
flushed and since it works in smaller chunks is more preemeptible.
To do this c_p_a needs to save the address to be flush for global_tlb_flush()
later. This is done using a separate data structure, not struct page,
because page->lru is often used or not there for memory holes.
Also the flushes are done in FIFO order now, not LIFO.
