David S. Miller a9546f59e9 [PATCH] sparc64: Do not flush dcache for ZERO_PAGE.
This case actually can get exercised a lot during an ELF
coredump of a process which contains a lot of non-COW'd
anonymous pages.  GDB has this test case which in partiaular
creates near terabyte process full of ZERO_PAGEes.  It takes
forever to just walk through the page tables because of
all of these spurious cache flushes on sparc64.

With this change it takes only a second or so.
