arm: Replace v7_maint_dcache_all(ARMV7_DCACHE_CLEAN_INVAL_ALL) with asm code v7_maint_dcache_all() does not work reliable when build with gcc6, see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1318788 While debugging this I learned that v7_maint_dcache_all() is unreliable when build with gcc5 too when it is marked as noinline. This commit fixes the reliability issues by replacing the C-code with the ready to use asm implementation from the kernel. Given that this code when written as C-code clearly is quite fragile (also see the existing comments about the C-code being the way it is to get optimal assembly) and that we have a proven asm alternative, I believe that this is the best solution. Note that we actually already had a copy of the kernel's v7_flush_dcache_all() before this commit in arch/arm/mach-uniphier/arm32/lowlevel_init.S. This commit moves that code arch/arm/cpu/armv7/cache_v7_asm.S, renames it to __v7_flush_dcache_all(), and adds a v7_flush_dcache_all() wrapper which saves / restores the clobbered registers for use from C-code.
