Aneesh V 882f80b993 armv7: stronger barrier for cache-maintenance operations
set-way operations need a DSB after them to ensure the
operation is complete. DMB may not be enough. Use DSB
after all operations instead of DMB.

Aneesh V 2c451f7831 armv7: cache maintenance operations for armv7
- Add a framework for layered cache maintenance
	- separate out SOC specific outer cache maintenance from
	  maintenance of caches known to CPU

- Add generic ARMv7 cache maintenance operations that affect all
  caches known to ARMv7 CPUs. For instance in Cortex-A8 these
  opertions will affect both L1 and L2 caches. In Cortex-A9
  these will affect only L1 cache

- D-cache operations supported:
	- Invalidate entire D-cache
	- Invalidate D-cache range
	- Flush(clean & invalidate) entire D-cache
	- Flush D-cache range
- I-cache operations supported:
	- Invalidate entire I-cache

- Add maintenance functions for TLB, branch predictor array etc.

- Enable -march=armv7-a so that armv7 assembly instructions can be
  used
