I've just asked Rob this, but you may have a view --
Should we avoid changing any actual behaviour in this patch?
If so then yes, we should add HAVE_L2X0_L2CC for everything previously
depended on by CACHE_L2X0.
If this is actually wrong, and not building the L2x0 support for certain
boards doesn't make sense (as seems to be the case for some boards),
then it would be up to those boards' maintainers to fix that in
subsequent patches if they care about it.
Alternatively, I could add the extra "select CACHE_L2X0" modifications
in a separate patch and append it to the series (contingent of Acks from
the relevant maintainers). Either route seems preferable to doing those
changes in a patch which claims just to be refactoring.
Cheers
