[PATCH] ARM64: setupc: drop erroneous cache flush of virt addr 0

[Ahmad Fatoum]

From: Chali Anis <chalianis1 at gmail.com>

relocate_to_adr copies around executable code and thus needs to
ensure coherence between I$ and D$. When the function was first added,
it didn't maintain cache correctly, because while it did call
arm_early_mmu_cache_flush(), back then that function did not invalidate
I$ after the D$ clean.

This likely went unnoticed, because a comment in relocate_to_adr
suggested that ic ivau is invalidating the I$, but in reality that
instruction did an unconditional invalidation of the single
cache line corresponding to virtual address 0 if it exists.

Back in 2019, sync_caches_for_execution() was introduced, which
correctly invalidates I$ after D$ cleaning, but the invalidation of
address 0 still remained.

On a 64-bit Tegra SoC with barebox running as EFI payload, it was
observed that this instruction was triggering a translation fault[1] at
address 0. The reason behind that is not completely understood, but it's
fixed by removing these two lines that are erroneous anyway, so let's do
that.
