Subject: [PATCH 3.11 002/144] ARM: highbank: avoid L2 cache smc calls when PL310 is not present

3.11.10.7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rob Herring <rob.herring@...xeda.com>

commit a56a5cf1f2ec895599eace0ac6eba1e4a489e4bf upstream.

While Midway firmware handles L2 smc calls as nops, the custom smc calls
present a problem when running virtualized Midway guest. They aren't
needed so just avoid calling them.

In the process, cleanup the L2X0 ifdefs and use IS_ENABLED instead.
