Well ... all of them.  Anonymous pages coming into get_user_pages() is
pretty much the exception.  You do this for every page.  But anyway,
even if you fixed that, Dave Miller vetoed an implementation based on
flush_cache_page() on the grounds that the implementation is nop'd on
quite a few architectures because of the way it's used ... it was the
first fix I tried to get past linux-arch.
