[PATCH v2 2/2] ARM: dcache: select DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS for little-endian ARMv6+ CPUs

[will.deacon@arm.com (Will Deacon)]

DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS uses the word-at-a-time API for optimised string
comparisons in the vfs layer.

This patch implements support for load_unaligned_zeropad for ARM CPUs
with native support for unaligned memory accesses (v6+) when running
little-endian.
