Subject: [PATCH] arch/m68k/kernel/sys_m68k: Add missing mmap_read_lock() to
sys_cacheflush()

When the superuser flushes the entire cache, the mmap_read_lock() is not
taken, but mmap_read_unlock() is called. Add the missing
mmap_read_lock() call.

Fixes: cd2567b6850b (m68k: call find_vma with the mmap_sem held in
sys_cacheflush())
