XSC3 supports these L2 operations in below.
1) invalidate L2 cache line (parameter is MVA)
2) clean L2 cache line (parameter is MVA)
3) clean L2 cache line (parameter is set/way)
4) clean and invalidate L2 cache line (parameter is set/way)

The most important thing is we couldn't call these L2 operations while
L2 is disabled.

"The behavior of these operations is unpredictable if the L2 cache is
disabled. If the L2 is not present, these operations performs no-ops."

I copied above words from XSC3 core spec at here. My opinion is that
not perform any L2 operations if L2 is disabled.
