Staging: ramzswap: remove ARM specific d-cache hack
Remove d-cache hack in ramzswap driver that was needed to workaround a bug in ARM version of update_mmu_cache() which caused stale data in d-cache to be transferred to userspace. This bug was fixed by git commit: 787b2faadc4356b6c2c71feb42fb944fece9a12f This also brings down one entry in TODO file.
