the cache.

This could be a static inline. In any case:

I see you already committed. I see very limited use here for static 
inline as this function might quite big (clear_page and 
clean_and_invalidate_dcache_va_range). The compiler is in better 
position to decide what to do than us.

IHMO, static inline should only be used in header and very small 
function (basically just checking a condition).

Cheers,
