On alloc we should flush the unencrypted (key=0) range, while on free
(below) we should flush the encrypted (key!=0) range.

But I seem to have missed where page_address() does the right thing
here.

So presumably page_address() is affected by this keyid, and the below
clear_highpage() then accesses the 'right' location?

I still don't like that comment much; yes the hardware doesn't do it,
and yes we have to do it, but it doesn't explain the actual scheme
employed to do so.

It should also check keyid > 0, so maybe:

	(unsigned)(keyid - 1) > keyids-1

instead?
