[PATCH] mmci: call flush_dcache_page() outside of atomic kmap

While booting a QEMU Versatile/PB system with the root file system on
SD, the following WARN_ON hits:

------------[ cut here ]------------

It's the WARN_ON(!irqs_disabled()) in sg_miter_stop():

                if (miter->__flags & SG_MITER_ATOMIC) {
                        WARN_ON(!irqs_disabled());
                        kunmap_atomic(miter->addr, KM_BIO_SRC_IRQ);
                }

This is because if the cache is VIVT, flush_dcache_page() calls
__flush_dcache_aliases() when a user space mapping exists.  That
function uses flush_dcache_mmap_unlock() which is spin_unlock_irq(),
which enables interrupts.   Fix this by calling flush_dcache_page() only
after the sg_miter is stopped.
