Notice that there are two here.

The first means that the platform passed values which resulted in an
actual modification to the control register.  This happens in
l2x0_of_init() to identify values of aux_mask/aux_val which result
in manipulation of the control register by hard-coded platform values.

The second means that the platform _or_ the DT resulted in an actual
modification of the control register.  This happens in __l2c_init(),
after the DT has been parsed, or after the non-DT code paths to identify
any remaining modifications.

I don't see any point to this patch.
