I just copied what did drivers/crypto/xilinx/zynqmp-sha.c.
I tried to do flush_dcache_range() but it seems to not be implemented on riscV.
That driver is broken and should no have been merged in that form.
And flush_dcache_page(virt_to_page(addr), len) produce a kernel panic.
And that's good so. Drivers have no business doing their own cache
flushing. That is the job of the dma-mapping implementation, so I'd
suggest to look for problems there.
I'm not sure that the dma-mapping code for non-coherent riscv systems
did get sorted. I couldn't find any when looking in 5.17.
I expect the flush of the icache is also implicitly doing a dcache
flush too as from what i've seen it is only being used when code or
tlbs are being modified.
