The L2 cache was never enabled in the v7_outer_cache_enable(), fix
this and enable the L2 cache.

Thanks Marek. I would be interested in some number here. Do you see
a bigger change in the performance (ethernet driver or dhrystone)
by enabling the L2 cache?
And another comment. It might be necessary to disable the L2 cache
when booting into Linux by providing the v7_outer_cache_enable()
function. I noticed problems in Linux with MVEBU with the L2
cache still enabled.
This is the v7_outer_cache_enable() function. Do you have anything else
in mind ?
Yes, I meant v7_outer_cache_disable() of course.
Thanks,
Stefan
