Thanks for your patch!

That actually looks like a better solution to me, as it would address the
problem for all users.

Why does this file need <asm/cacheflush.h> at all?
It doesn't call any of the flush_*() functions, and seems to compile fine
without (on arm32).
Perhaps it was included at the top intentionally, to override the definitions
of copy_{to,from}_user_page()? Fortunately that doesn't seem to be the
case, from a quick look at the assembler output.
So let's just remove the #include instead?
