This patch introduces a subtle side effect on the tracing logic later in this function.
At the end of cache_tag_flush_range(), trace_cache_tag_flush_range(tag, start, end, addr, mask) is called to log
the flush operation.
With this patch: bypassed the assignment and used break, addr and mask retain their original range values.
This causes the tracepoint to log an incorrect, smaller range while the actual hardware execution was a full-range flush.
My patch has not this issue:
