This part should be in arch/arm/mach-omap2 because of the
direct calls to v7_flush_dcache_all. Then you can pass a pointer
to this function in platform_data for now, and set it up based
on the compatible flag with device tree from driver later on.

NAK for this, this must be private to arch/arm/mach-omap2.

Instead, just create a minimal include/linux/platform_data/omap3-rom.h,
and pass the function pointer in the pdata if passed.

You should replace the cpu_is_omap34xx() and omap_type() with
some flags that you pass in the pdata. These too can be then
deciphered based on the DT compatible flag later on. And then
you don't need to include soc.h.
