[XTENSA] Add support for cache-aliasing
Add support for processors that have cache-aliasing issues, such as
the Stretch S5000 processor. Cache-aliasing means that the size of
the cache (for one way) is larger than the page size, thus, a page
can end up in several places in cache depending on the virtual to
physical translation. The method used here is to map a user page
temporarily through the auto-refill way 0 and of of the DTLB.
We probably will want to revisit this issue and use a better
approach with kmap/kunmap.
