flush_xen_dcache_va_range uses DCCMVAC (for ARM32 bits), which only
clean the cache.

Following your commit message, we might want to use DCCIMVAC.

Yes, I think you are right, I thought this function invalidated as well.

I was wondering if we can change the behaviour of flush_xen_dcache_va_range. Invalidate the cache should not harm the other call-site.
