First of all, thanks for these patches. I worked and is still working on Marvell
Berlin Linux kernel BSP at Marvell. As the person who brought up Linux kernel for
various Berlin SoCs since BG2, I have some comments to share with you.

It would be better to s/88DE3xxx/88DExxxx or remove 88DE3xxx totally

Can you please use MACH_BERLIN2? This is what we used internally in latest BSP

The tauros3 and PL310 are different although the programming interface are
compatible. In PJ4B and Tauros3, the CP15 cache maintenance commands include
both L1 and L2, memory mapped PA-based maintenance operations in L2 are not needed.
How to handle this in cache-l2x0.c?

Armada 1500 == mv88de3100 == BG2
We always call BGx internally, so s/mv88de3100/berlin2 in all patches except
patch 4 would be better. IOW, I prefer to call berlin2/berlin2ct/berlin2cd etc
and never use mv88dexxxx or armada xxxx in code, dt bindings except documents.
This would remove unnecessary confusions. What do you think?
Thanks,
Jisheng
