Log:
Disable PL310 outer cache sync for IO coherent platforms
When a PL310 cache is used on a system that provides hardware
coherency, the outer cache sync operation is useless, and can be
skipped. Moreover, on some systems, it is harmful as it causes
deadlocks between the Marvell coherency mechanism, the Marvell PCIe
or Crypto controllers and the Cortex-A9.
To avoid this, this commit introduces a new Device Tree property
'arm,io-coherent' for the L2 cache controller node, valid only for the
PL310 cache. It identifies the usage of the PL310 cache in an I/O
coherent configuration. Internally, it makes the driver disable the
outer cache sync operation.
Note, that other outer-cache operations are not removed, as they may
be needed for certain situations, such as booting secondary CPUs.
Moreover, in order to enable IO coherent operation, the decision
whether to use L2 cache maintenance callbacks is done in busdma
layer, which was enabled in one of the previous commits.
