Subject: ARM: dts: mvebu: pl310-cache disable double-linefill

From: Yan Markman <[email protected]>

commit cda80a82ac3e89309706c027ada6ab232be1d640 upstream.

Under heavy system stress mvebu SoC using Cortex A9 sporadically encountered instability issues.

The "double linefill" feature of L2 cache was identified as causing dependency between read and write which lead to the deadlock.

Especially, it was the cause of deadlock seen under heavy PCIe traffic, as this dependency violates PCIE overtaking rule.
