ARM: 6111/1: Implement read/write for ownership in the ARMv6 DMA cache ops
The Snoop Control Unit on the ARM11MPCore hardware does not detect the cache operations and the dma_cache_maint*() functions may leave stale cache entries on other CPUs. The solution implemented in this patch performs a Read or Write For Ownership in the ARMv6 DMA cache maintenance functions. These LDR/STR instructions change the cache line state to shared or exclusive so that the cache maintenance operation has the desired effect. Tested-by: George G.
