actually I'd like to have a better cache management API and you point the
board_ does not fit here as the code is soc or arch specific

as we will support only one arch simultany I'll prefer to not specify it's
name at all.
you will ask why? The reason is that I do want have a common cache management
and a common cleanup before linux
so I'll propose l2_cache_flush as done for the Marvell orion
for non-l2 cache I prefer to manage it via armvXX as they will be common
Best Regards,
J.
