From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: nds32: flush_dcache_page: use page_mapping_file to avoid races with swapoff

Commit cb9f753a3731 ("mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcache")
updated flush_dcache_page implementations on several architectures to use
page_mapping_file() in order to avoid races between page_mapping() and
swapoff().

This update missed arch/nds32 and there is a possibility of a race there.

Replace page_mapping() with page_mapping_file() in nds32 implementation of
flush_dcache_page().
