[Xen-devel] [PATCH v9 3/8] xen/arm: return int from *_dcache_va_range

[Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

These functions cannot really fail on ARM, but their x86 equivalents can
(-EOPNOTSUPP). Change the prototype to return int.

Changes in v9:
- remove useless ASSERT;
- add a comment on ARM callers assuming that these functions cannot
fail.

Changes in v6:
- do not return int from flush_page_to_ram.
