We have discussed the need of cache maintenance by
level kind of API for ARMv7 (A15).

Shouldn't we add such API for arm64 as well ?
Yes, at some point we'll probably add but we'll discuss it again when
actually needed. I wouldn't define new API now that's not used by any
AArch64 code.
The patches are already on the list for ARMv7 and just waiting to merge
two approaches.
I agree once it is getting merged for ARMv7 and ARMv8 port can be
updated.

Santosh
