Current many cpu use the same flush_cache() function, which just call
the flush_dcache_range().
So implement a weak flush_cache() for all the cpus to use.
In original weak flush_cache() in arch/arm/lib/cache.c, there has some
code for ARM1136 & ARM926ejs. But in the arch/arm/cpu/arm1136/cpu.c and
arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/cache.c, there implements a real flush_cache()
function as well. That means the original code for ARM1136 & ARM926ejs
in weak flush_cache() of arch/arm/lib/cache.c is totally useless.
So in this patch remove such code in flush_cache() and only call
flush_dcache_range().

Since some driver like ohci, lcd used dcache functions. But some ARM
cpu don't implement the invalidate_dcache_range()/flush_dcache_range()
functions.
To avoid compiling errors this patch adds an weak empty stub function
for all ARM cpu in arch/arm/lib/cache.c.
And ARM cpu still can implemnt its own cache functions on the cpu folder.

Implement an API that can be used by drivers to allocate memory from a
pool that is mapped uncached. This is useful if drivers would otherwise
need to do extensive cache maintenance (or explicitly maintaining the
cache isn't safe).
The API is protected using the new CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY setting.
Boards can set this to the size to be used for the non-cached area. The
area will typically be right below the malloc() area, but architectures
should take care of aligning the beginning and end of the area to honor
any mapping restrictions. Architectures must also ensure that mappings
established for this area do not overlap with the malloc() area (which
should remain cached for improved performance).
While the API is currently only implemented for ARM v7, it should be
generic enough to allow other architectures to implement it as well.

c2dd0d4554 added dcache_enable()
to board_init_r(). This enables d-cache for all ARM boards.
As a result some of the arm boards that are not cache-ready
are broken. Revert this change and allow platform code to
take the decision on d-cache enabling.
Also add some documentation for cache usage in ARM.

1. make sure that page table setup is not done multiple times
2. flush_dcache_all() is more appropriate while disabling cache
than a range flush on the entire memory(flush_cache())
Provide a default implementation for flush_dcache_all()
for backward compatibility and to avoid build issues.

Commit c3d3a54 uses CONFIG_ARMV7 to determine whether to call the
v7_flush_cache_all function. This breaks the build for all non-OMAP3
boards (like Panda and OMAP4430SDP) since there is only a v7_flush_cache_all
implementation for OMAP3.
This patch uses CONFIG_OMAP3XXX instead of CONFIG_ARMV7 so that only boards
with a v7_flush_cache_all will make the call.
