I tested on both Tegra20 and Tegra30, and see bits 19:16 are 8 on both,
with or without this patch.
I know that the code above was introduced in:
01548673fa15 arm/tegra: generalize L2 cache initialization
... by Peter, as part of the port to Tegra30. However, there was no
explanation in that patch why it was needed. The existence of the patch
implies that Tegra20/30 use different way sizes or associativity for
their cache, and hence if we're going to forcibly over-write that part
of the aux register, we need to dynamically calculate the correct value
to put there. However in practice, both chips seem to use the same value
for that field anyway (unless perhaps U-Boot is trashing the field
before the kernel boots).
