virtual vs physical addresses to cache functions

From: John Linn

Maybe this is a dumb question...

I believe that the kernel expects virtual addresses to be passed to the
defined cache functions across all architectures. Looking at PowerPC
and Blackfin confirm this I think.

Can someone confirm this or point to where it's documented as I have dug
for it without finding any specific details?

Thanks,
John
