[PATCH v2 2/6] x86/gnttab: do not implement GNTTABOP_cache_flush



The current underlying implementation of GNTTABOP_cache_flush on x86 won't
work as expected.  The provided {clean,invalidate}_dcache_va_range()
helpers only do a local pCPU cache flush, so the cache of previous pCPUs
where the vCPU might have run are not flushed.

However instead of attempting to fix this, make the GNTTABOP_cache_flush
operation only available to ARM.  There are no known users on x86, the
implementation is broken, and other architectures don't have grant-table
support yet.

With that operation not implemented on x86, the related
{clean,invalidate}_dcache_va_range() helpers can also be removed.

Fixes: f62dc81c2df7 ("x86: introduce more cache maintenance operations")
Fixes: 18e8d22fe750 ("introduce GNTTABOP_cache_flush")
