Did I miss the DT part somewhere or is that not part of this patch ?

Another question I have is -- why don't we set CONFIG_SYS_{I,D}CACHE_SIZE to
maximum value? This should work for all nios2 cache configurations and it should
also be correct, no ? Speed might be a bit of an issue here, but I doubt the
impact would be that large.
