I stumbled about this some time ago, too. The thing is however that the
__armv7_mmu_cache functions are selected if
CPUID & 0x000f0000 == 0x000f0000, and that is (AFAIK at present only
theoretically) not implying that we have an ARMv7 machine. Only that it
uses the "CPUID Identification Scheme" which is required on ARMv7.

Best regards
Uwe
