Stop hacking around the core L2x0 code.  None of the above should be
necessary, and is in fact potentially dangerous if the cache was already
previously enabled.  Disabling an already enabled cache is a potential
data corrupting event.

Any of the above configuration should be performed by your boot loader
or board firmware, and if not, then we need DT properties for it.

The last thing we need is platforms buggering around in this way, so
consider this a firm NAK against this approach.

In fact, none of this code is necessary.  If you set l2c_aux_mask and
l2c_aux_val (preferably to ~0 and 0 respectively) then the generic ARM
code will initialise the L2 cache in the appropriate way for you.
