Subject: [PATCH v13 053/137] mm: Add flush_dcache_folio()

This is a default implementation which calls flush_dcache_page() on
each page in the folio.  If architectures can do better, they should
implement their own version of it.

+  ``void flush_dcache_folio(struct folio *folio)``
+	This function is called under the same circumstances as
+	flush_dcache_page().  It allows the architecture to
+	optimise for flushing the entire folio of pages instead
+	of flushing one page at a time.
