I disagree. Having a flush_cache_range() function which does _less_ than 
its name implies is a correctness problem. Having the per-arch ifdefs to 
optimise away the flushes which aren't necessary, ugly though it may be, it 
still better than that.

Provide a new function with a name that at least vaguely describes its 
behaviour - and all will be well.

Surely we just need to make sure that our stuff is merged first? Then paint 
it pink :)
