powerpc: Fix __flush_icache_range on 44x

The ptrace POKETEXT interface allows a process to modify the text pages of
a child process being ptraced, usually to insert breakpoints via trap
instructions.  The kernel eventually calls copy_to_user_page, which in turn
calls __flush_icache_range to invalidate the icache lines for the child
process.

However, this function does not work on 44x due to the icache being virtually
indexed.  This was noticed by a breakpoint being triggered after it had been
cleared by ltrace on a 440EPx board.  The convenient solution is to do a
flash invalidate of the icache in the __flush_icache_range function.
