commit edf2d546bfd6 ("riscv: patch: Flush the icache right after
patching to avoid illegal insns") mistakenly removed the global icache
flush in patch_text_nosync() and patch_text_set_nosync() functions, so
reintroduce them.

Shouldn't this use the permalink for the specific message, not the thread?

This patch was based on an old tree from before
https://git.kernel.org/riscv/c/47742484ee16 removed the "tp" variable. While it
still compiles because flush_icache_range() is a macro that discards its
arguments, it will be confusing to anyone reading the code.

Samuel

I never paid attention to that, but the permalink is shorter so I'll
change that, thanks

Hmmm not the first time I hear this :) Sorry, I prepared the patch a
couple of weeks ago and the rebase on 6.11-rc1 did not complain, I do
that right now and send a new version tomorrow.
Thanks,
Alex

Thanks. Alex is going to spin a new one, so I dropped this.
