KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 954ffcb35f flush icache before set_pte() on ia64: flush icache at set_pte
Current ia64 kernel flushes icache by lazy_mmu_prot_update() *after*
set_pte().  This is too late.  This patch removes lazy_mmu_prot_update and
add modfied set_pte() for flushing if necessary.

This patch flush icache of a page when
	new pte has exec bit.
	&& new pte has present bit
	&& new pte is user's page.
	&& (old *ptep is not present
            || new pte's pfn is not same to old *ptep's ptn)
	&& new pte's page has no Pg_arch_1 bit.
	   Pg_arch_1 is set when a page is cache consistent.

I think this condition checks are much easier to understand than considering
"Where sync_icache_dcache() should be inserted ?".

pte_user() for ia64 was removed by http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/12/67 as
clean-up. So, I added it again.
