if it doesn't flush icache in the flush_cache() function, then i would say so

sounds like we should rip all this cache stuff out of common.h and into like 
cache.h so we can document the API expectations.  i think Wolfgang was against 
this before, but maybe that was just creating a header for one specific cache 
macro and not all cache stuff ?
