* Dave Martin [off-list ref] [111214 03:08]:
If running in the Normal World on a TrustZone-enabled SoC, Linux does not have complete control over the L2 cache controller configuration. The kernel cannot work reliably on such platforms without the l2x0 cache support code built in.
There are HS and GP omaps (High Security and General Purpose). GP omaps do have full control of the L2. Also HS omaps most likely provide control over enabling and disabling L2 depending how the secure code is implemented. BTW, the real problem is that because the secure code is implemented in various ways, we don't really have any handling for it in Linux. The SMI instruction numbers don't seem to be standardized at all, and can mean different things on different boards, even different board versions :( Sounds like devicetree is the only safe way to deal with the L2 control options.

This patch unconditionally enables l2x0 support for the OMAP4 SoCs. Thanks to Rob Herring for this suggestion.
