Agreed, it is just replacing some labels. I thought that something like:

b flush_levels

is clearer than:

b loop1

If I manage to factor out the cache level flushing loop I think things
are even better, I just did not want to change v7_flush_dcache_all, I would
avoid doing that, unless, as I mentioned, it is considered worthwhile.

v7_flush_dcache_louis uses it, I have no problem in deferring it though.
