Subject: [PATCH V2 16/22] MIPS: BMIPS: Add special cache handling in c-r4k.c

BMIPS435x and BMIPS438x have a single shared L1 D$ and load/store unit,
so it isn't necessary to raise IPIs to keep both CPUs coherent.

BMIPS5000 has VIPT L1 caches that handle aliases in hardware, and its I$
fills from D$.  But a special sequence with 2 SYNCs and 32 NOPs is needed
to ensure coherency.
