Exynos4 SoCs equipped with an L2C-310 cache controller and running under
secure firmware require certain registers of aforementioned IP to be
accessed only from secure mode. This means that SMC calls are required
for certain register writes. To handle this, an implementation of
.write_sec and .configure callbacks is provided by this patch.

If we're calling this with the cache already enabled, presumably you're
doing this to cover the case where we're disabling the cache.

1. Do you really want to *invalidate* the L2 cache, discarding its
   contents?
2. Don't you think that... if you needed something like this here, then
   it could be a defficiency in the common code?

If (2) doesn't apply, then should be a comment here why this is needed.

Can we ever call this with L2X0_CTRL_EN set in val, while the cache is
already enabled?

Anyway, calling of this firmware operation is necessary before enabling
the cache and this code is here to cover this requirement. Whether this
function simply invalidates the cache or does something else is unknown
to me, as all the information I got is that this needs to be done.

This is a quirk specific to Exynos firmware and I suspect it doesn't
even have anything to do with cache invalidation, but rather some
internal logic inside the firmware.

I agree, though, that a comment might be useful here.

Best regards,
Tomasz
