Please forgive my almost complete lack of knowledge re: cache
controllers. Is the correct fix for this:

a) To remove bit 0 from the aux_val passed to l2x0_of_init()

b) To set some BIT(3) in the Cortex-A9 auxcr, so this feature is enabled
there too.

And if (b), I assume that's something that the bootloader should be
doing, not the kernel?

Thanks.
