Completely wrong, sorry.

What this says is...
	first, bitwise _OR_ L310_AUX_CTRL_DATA_PREFETCH with
	L310_AUX_CTRL_INSTR_PREFETCH.  This produces a number which has
	_two_ bits set.

	then, bitwise _AND_ that number with the auxiliary control register.

	If the result is non-zero, then execute the code within the if() { }
	block.

So, I'm not going to take this patch.  The code is correct as it stands.
