[PULL 15/28] arm64: KVM: Add invalidate_icache_range helper

From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier at arm.com>

We currently tightly couple dcache clean with icache invalidation,
but KVM could do without the initial flush to PoU, as we've
already flushed things to PoC.

Let's introduce invalidate_icache_range which is limited to
invalidating the icache from the linear mapping (and thus
has none of the userspace fault handling complexity), and
wire it in KVM instead of flush_icache_range.
