The ptrace POKETEXT interface allows a process to modify the text pages of a child process being ptraced, usually to insert breakpoints via trap instructions. The kernel eventually calls copy_to_user_page, which in turn calls __flush_icache_range to invalidate the icache lines for the child process. However, this function does not work on 44x due to the icache being virtually indexed. This was noticed by a breakpoint being triggered after it had been cleared by ltrace on a 440EPx board. The convenient solution is to do a flash invalidate of the icache in the __flush_icache_range function.
