[PATCH] Optimize D-cache alias handling on fork

Virtually index, physically tagged cache architectures can get away
without cache flushing when forking.  This patch adds a new cache
flushing function flush_cache_dup_mm(struct mm_struct *) which for the
moment I've implemented to do the same thing on all architectures
except on MIPS where it's a no-op.
