Unfortunately patch_text_cb() is not the only user of patch_text_nosync
since patch_text_nosync() and patch_text_set_nosync() are called directly
from other places as well.
We have to update all users of patch_text_nosync() and
patch_text_set_nosync() to move to local icache flushes which
is a much bigger change.
