On architectures where flush_dcache_page is not needed, we will
end up generating all the code up to the PageSlab call. This is
because PageSlab operates on a volatile pointer and thus cannot
be optimised away.
This patch works around this by checking whether flush_dcache_page
is needed before we call PageSlab which then allows PageSlab to be
compiled awy.
