Newer Linux' AGP code wants to flush caches on all CPUs under certain
circumstances. Since doing this on all vCPU-s of the domain in
question doesn't yield the intended effect, this needs to be done in
the hypervisor. Add a new MMUEXT operation for this.
While looking at the pre-existing flush implementation, I also noticed
an off-by-one error in the cache flush portion of flush_area_local().
