2011-09-04arm: do not force d-cache enable on all boardsAneesh V
c2dd0d45540397704de9b13287417d21049d34c6 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. Signed-off-by: Aneesh V <aneesh@ti.com>
