Hi,
This patch set allows M-class cpus benefit of optional cache support.
It originaly was written by Jonny, I've been keeping it localy mainly
rebasing over Linux versions.
The main idea behind patches is to reuse existing cache handling code
from v7A/R. In case v7M cache operations are provided via memory
mapped interface rather than co-processor instructions, so extra
macros have been introduced to factor out cache handling logic and
low-level operations.
Along with the v7M cache support the first user (Cortex-M7) is
introduced.
Patches were tested on MPS2 platform with Cortex-M3/M4/M7. The later
one showed significant boot speed-up.
Based on 4.7-rc3.
Thanks!
Vladimir
