[POWERPC] Check cache coherency of kernel vs firmware
check_cache_coherency() verifies that the cache coherency setting of the kernel (CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE) matches that left by the firmware, as indicated by coherency-off device tree property. Signed-off-by: Dale Farnsworth <dale@farnsworth.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
