The profiling of single-thread selftests bench reveals a bottlenect in caches_clean_inval_pou() on ARM64. On my local testing machine, this function takes approximately 34% of CPU cycles for trig-uprobe-nop and trig-uprobe-push. This patch add a check to avoid unnecessary cache flush when writing instruction to the xol slot. If the instruction is same with the existing instruction in slot, there is no need to synchronize D/I cache. Since xol slot allocation and updates occur on the hot path of uprobe handling, The upstream kernel running on Kunpeng916 (Hi1616), 4 NUMA nodes, 64 cores@ 2.4GHz reveals this optimization has obvious gain for nop and push testcases.

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.
