Why would it be necessary to ever run this manually?
I feel you are just papering over bugs / shortcomings elsewhere in the
code. Should we not rather fix the places where the cache flushes are
missing in the code?
Possibly -- the alternative would be to have every command that
modifies memory flush that region of cache afterward (cp, tftp, etc).
You could say the same thing about the existing cache command, though.
