I'm not sure ARM cache coherency model. but I guess correct patch is here.

+		if (mapping_writably_mapped(mapping))
+			flush_dcache_page(page);
+
 		pagefault_disable();
 		copied = iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(page, i, offset, bytes);
 		pagefault_enable();
-		flush_dcache_page(page);


Why do we need to call flush_dcache_page() twice?
