Subject: [PATCH] m68k: Add missing mmap_read_lock() to sys_cacheflush()

From: Liam Howlett <liam.howlett@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit f829b4b212a315b912cb23fd10aaf30534bb5ce9 ]

When the superuser flushes the entire cache, the mmap_read_lock() is not
taken, but mmap_read_unlock() is called.  Add the missing
mmap_read_lock() call.

Cc: stable@...nel.org # <= 5.7.y
Fixes: cd2567b6850b1648 ("m68k: call find_vma with the mmap_sem held in sys_cacheflush()")

The original commit was backported as far as 5.10.y but never made it into
4.19.y or 5.4.y.

mmap_read_lock() was unavailable prior to v5.8, being introduced in commit
d8ed45c5dcd4 ("mmap locking API: use coccinelle to convert mmap_sem rwsem
call sites"), so this backport uses down_read() instead.
