Some architectures have special handling after clearing user folios: architectures, which set cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to true, require flushing dcache; arc, which sets cpu_icache_is_aliasing() to true, changes folio->flags to make icache coherent to dcache. So __GFP_ZERO using only clear_page() is not enough to zero user folios and clear_user_(high)page() must be used. Otherwise, user data will be corrupted. Fix it by always clearing user folios with clear_user_(high)page() when cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() is true or cpu_icache_is_aliasing() is true. Rename alloc_zeroed() to user_alloc_needs_zeroing() and invert the logic to clarify its intend.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
