MIPS: Flush dcache for flush_kernel_dcache_page
The flush_kernel_dcache_page function was previously essentially a nop. This is incorrect for MIPS, where if a page has been modified & either it aliases or it's executable & the icache doesn't fill from dcache then the content needs to be written back from dcache to the next level of the cache hierarchy (which is shared with the icache). Implement this by simply calling flush_dcache_page, treating this kmapped cache flush function (flush_kernel_dcache_page) exactly the same as its non-kmapped counterpart (flush_dcache_page).
