Is it similar to

diff --git a/drivers/iommu/intel/pasid.c b/drivers/iommu/intel/pasid.c
index c5d479770e12..49fc5a038a14 100644

@@ -129,7 +129,7 @@ int intel_pasid_alloc_table(struct device *dev)
         info->pasid_table = pasid_table;

         if (!ecap_coherent(info->iommu->ecap))
-               clflush_cache_range(pasid_table->table, size);
+               clflush_cache_range(pasid_table->table, (1 << order) *

         return 0;
  }

?
