and CACHE_LINE_SIZE seems to be what ePAPR calls cache-block-size, i.e.
the fundamental unit of cache management as seen from the CPU, independent
of how it is physically organized.
Yeah. Well, actually that means the variable in cache-l2x0.c should
be renamed from CACHE_LINE_SIZE to CACHE_BLOCK_SIZE
if we go with that terminology, right? That is the real change that
is needed to make terminology consistent then.
Not sure if it's worth it. It may be a case of IBM terminology being
at odds with ARM terminology. ;-)
