No platform-specific #ifdefs into generic code.  More on that see below.

Use cache_op() from <asm/r4kcache.h> instead of more inline assembler.

I wonder if it is safe to just disable the cache without flushing it before or
after.

Initializing c->tcache here is nice but it all depends on the tcache_size which
depends on the platform and isn't (I call it a design flaw) easily accessible.  The
solution is a R4000SC-style probe for the cache size.  See c-r4.c probe_scache()
for how this works and emjoy the scary comments.  It should easier to do this with
just banging the cache tags on the RM7000 while the T-cache is disabled.
