    arm: Import armv7_dcache_wbinv_all function from NetBSD
    
    This patch pulls in NetBSD's full cache flushing algorithm for ARM, to
    replace our old, slow and slightly overzealous C-only implementation.
    It's a beautiful piece of code that manages to run on only caller-saved
    registers (meaning it doesn't need to write to memory) in a very tight
    loop, and it's BSD-licensed to boot (which we need for libpayload).
    Unfortunately it's also not quite correct, but I can fix that. Pulling
    the original in a separate commit to make it more obvious what changes
    are mine.
