When calling flush_icache_range with a size >4GB, we were masking
off the upper 32 bits, so we would incorrectly flush a range smaller
than intended.

This patch replaces the 32 bit shifts with 64 bit ones, so that
the full size is accounted for.

Please send this separately, to be committed right now?  It is a bug fix,
independent of the rest of the series.

Patch 4/6 needs it, as it drops the function.

Or do you mean that the series should drop the assembly at once, and 
this patch should only go into stable ?

But I guess mpe can take this patch alone if he wants to ?

By the way, Patch 2/6 is also a bugfix.

I meant that you can say these patches (yes, 2/ as well) are bug fixes,
independent of the rest, and they can be picked up immediately, there
is no need to wait for v18 of this series.

Yeah, but you can help him do that ;-)
