The feature register existing on other v5 cores is actually co-processor
enable register in PJ1. I doubt that's going to cause no side effect, we don't
likely need to use this extra feature register at all. A more preferable way
would be to have something like below in tauros2_init:
if (cpu_is_pj1()) {
enable_l2_bit();
outer_cache.inv_range = ....
....
}
