Current flush_dcache_page() implementation does not allow lazy cache
flushing for highmem pages (introduced by commit d73cd42) on the
assumption that the temporary kmap mapping would disappear. A subsequent
commit (7e5a69e) allows __flush_dcache_page() to handle highmem pages so
we can allow lazy cache flushing even for highmem pages.
