mm: add a call to flush_cache_vmap() in vmap_pfn()
commita50420c797
upstream. flush_cache_vmap() must be called after new vmalloc mappings are installed in the page table in order to allow architectures to make sure the new mapping is visible. It could lead to a panic since on some architectures (like powerpc), the page table walker could see the wrong pte value and trigger a spurious page fault that can not be resolved (see commitf1cb8f9beb
("powerpc/64s/radix: avoid ptesync after set_pte and ptep_set_access_flags")). But actually the patch is aiming at riscv: the riscv specification allows the caching of invalid entries in the TLB, and since we recently removed the vmalloc page fault handling, we now need to emit a tlb shootdown whenever a new vmalloc mapping is emitted (https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20230725132246.817726-1-alexghiti@rivosinc.com/). That's a temporary solution, there are ways to avoid that :) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230809164633.1556126-1-alexghiti@rivosinc.com Fixes:3e9a9e256b
