 Log Message:
 Fix a logic inversion introduced with the matt-nb5-mips64 for
 pmap_{zero,copy}_page cache alias handing. The check previously used
 PG_MD_UNCACHED_P, where it now uses PG_MD_CACHED_P, when considering if
 a cache invalidation is required.
 
 Additionally flush the cache for the uarea va to avoid potential (future)
 cache aliases in cpu_uarea_free when handing pages back to uvm for later
 use.

 Hopefully this addresses the instability reported in the following PRs:
 
 PR/44900 - R5000/Rm5200 mips ports are broken
 PR/46170 - NetBSD/cobalt 6.0_BETA does not boot
 PR/46890 - upcoming NetBSD 6.0 release is very unstable / unusable on cobalt 
qube 2
 PR/48628 - cobalt and hpcmips ports are dead
