[ARM] Do not call flush_cache_user_range with mmap_sem held

We can't be holding the mmap_sem while calling flush_cache_user_range
because the flush can fault. If we fault on a user address, the
page fault handler will try to take mmap_sem again. Since both places
acquire the read lock, most of the time it succeeds. However, if another
thread tries to acquire the write lock on the mmap_sem (e.g. mmap) in
between the call to flush_cache_user_range and the fault, the down_read
in do_page_fault will deadlock.

Also, since we really can't be holding the mmap_sem while calling
flush_cache_user_range AND vma is actually unused by the flush itself,
get rid of vma as an argument.
