   Won't generic cache_line_size() macro do instead? It's defined as
L1_CACHE_BYTES.
Interesting. It would be the same value (32) but I'm not sure how
multi-platform friendly that will be since L1_CACHE_BYTES is (1 <<
CONFIG_ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT). I suppose we can punt supporting platforms
with different cache line sizes in one kernel for another day.
