+Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: c-r4k: Fix size calc when avoiding IPIs for small
+ icache flushes
+
+Commit f70ddc07b637 ("MIPS: c-r4k: Avoid small flush_icache_range SMP
+calls") adds checks to force use of hit-type cache ops for small icache
+flushes where they are globalised & index-type cache ops aren't, in
+order to avoid the overhead of IPIs in those cases. However it
+calculated the size of the region being flushed incorrectly, subtracting
+the end address from the start address rather than the reverse. This
+would have led to an overflow with size wrapping round to some large
+value, and likely to the special case for avoiding IPIs not actually
+being hit.
