Seems like the l2 cache is enabled after uboot starts the linux kernel. I'll 
dig deeper into that tomorrow.

For now, i appended
  l2_cache_disable();
to uboots cleanup_before_linux() and all stubs seems to be patched correctly.

void l2_cache_disable(void)
{
	struct kwcpu_registers *cpureg =
		(struct kwcpu_registers *)KW_CPU_REG_BASE;
	writel(readl(&cpureg->l2_cfg) & ~0x18, &cpureg->l2_cfg);
}

l2_cfg is 0xf1020128.

But i don't know if that is correct way of disabling the cache.

Nico, what uboot are you using for your SheeavaPlug? Vanilla uboot?
