sh: get_user_pages_fast() must flush cache

Browse Source 
This patch avoids fuse hangs on sh4 by flushing the cache on
get_user_pages_fast().  This is not necessary a good thing to do, but
get_user_pages() does this, so get_user_pages_fast() should too.

Please note the patch for mips arch that addresses the similar problem:
  https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ralf/linux/+/linux-3.4.50%5E!/#F0

They basically simply disable get_user_pages_fast() at all, using a
fall-back to get_user_pages().  But my fix is different, it adds an
explicit cache flushes.
