+ This option enables a disk-block cache for all block devices.
+ This is most useful when accessing filesystems under U-Boot since

+ Enable the blkcache command, which can be used to control the
+ operation of the cache functions.
+ This is most useful when fine-tuning the operation of the cache
+ during development, but also allows the cache to be disabled when
+ it might hurt performance (e.g. when using the ums command).
