copy_to_user_page can be used by access_process_vm to write to an executable page of a process using a mapping acquired by kmap. For systems with I-cache aliasing, flushing the I-cache using the Kernel mapping may leave stale data in the I-cache if the user mapping is of a different colour. This patch introduces a flush_icache_alias function to flush.c, which calls flush_icache_range with a mapping of the specified colour. flush_ptrace_access is then modified to call this new function instead of coherent_kern_range in the case of an aliasing I-cache and a non-aliasing D-cache.
