The issue was of 'order of operations'.
In our devices we have L2 cache and the L2 must be enabled before the L1.
this change was with reference to older u-boot and earlier SOC versions.
I have tested the code without this patch and is functional.
We can add code for disabling the L1 before enabling the L2 in SOC specific .

This patch is not needed now, We can skip this patch.
