OK, will remove that.

This was intentional, I missed mentioning about it. Do you think we
need to change it back ?

Thanks for that, yes it should.

The ARM_CCI now stands for CCI version agnostic code. This can be used
for adding support for the newer versions, e.g CCI-500, which I am
planning to post, after this series gets sorted out.

So, would you like to change the ARM_CCI400_MCPM as well, to something like:
	ARM_CCI400_DRIVER or even ARM_CCI400_LL_DRIVER ?

Yes, it could have been moved to the previous one, will fix it in the 
next revision.
