Subject: [ 02/21] arm64: mm: Fix operands of clz in __flush_dcache_all

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

------------------

From: Sukanto Ghosh <sghosh@....com>

commit b4fed0796841b5293b9c9427a5391b7bb20ef2d9 upstream.

The format of the lower 32-bits of the 64-bit operand to 'dc cisw' is
unchanged from ARMv7 architecture and the upper bits are RES0. This
implies that the 'way' field of the operand of 'dc cisw' occupies the
bit-positions [31 .. (32-A)]. Due to the use of 64-bit extended operands
to 'clz', the existing implementation of __flush_dcache_all is incorrectly
placing the 'way' field in the bit-positions [63 .. (64-A)].
