I've tested and updated Brian Murphy's R5K SC patch to the 2.5
kernel. I've also changed a few comments, changedPage_Invalidateoperation toR5K_Page_Invalidate_Sto be consistent with the naming of R4K cache ops, and simplified ther5k_dma_cache_inv_scroutine (no need for two 'while'). And I've also removed the extra crap for in config-shared.in in Brian's latest diff (removing spaces/formating) :)

I've also tested this patch at runtime, it runs fine (as far as
a 2.5.8 can run fine :)). This patch is for both 2.5.8/mips64 and 2.5.8/mips.Please comment and/or apply,
Mostly ok. I just don't like that you force CONFIG_BOARD_SCACHE on everybody with a R5000 or Nevada. Cobalt Qube 1 for example has a Nevada
which never has a second level cache, whatever type. So if you could
fix that eventually :-)
