I would also like to find in this changelog "why" this patch is needed and more
importantly, how it remains compatible with existing implementation.  I am
mostly worried about implemenations where the application processor is using
caches while the SCP is not.

I will also need a couple of "Tested-by" tags before moving forward with this
patch.

Thanks,
Mathieu
