Hi Lei I had pushed similar code long back but it was not accepted at that time. You may push this with proper explanation- 1. What this code exactly does and how this change is important for SHEEVA SoCs and boards mainlined so far.

Thanks for your suggestion.
The original implementation only drain write buffer. It cannot assure that when using dma from device to memory, the device cannot read the obsolete content of that range. Only invalidate cache would do that way.
This new adding assemble code for flushing has this meaning as: "DCache Clean All and Invalidate. Cleans all lines in the DCache, then invalidates the cache." It is slightly different from common arm core, as when we want invalidate the cache, we need to invalidate each cache entry.
That is the reason why I add this specific implementation for Marvell core only.
Best regards, Lei
