So lets rebase this submission on top of that.
I already did and the patch that you criticized is based on the top of
that.
I've found out that memcpy_flushcache performs better on x86 and dax_flush
performs betetr on ARM64, so the code has two flushing strategies that are
switched with preprocessor condition.
