And then in patch 4, I'm not sure it is worth to keep SRAM_DYNAMIC as 
user selectable.

This will work only if is defined all the time in the .h regardless of 
CONFIG_FSL_85XX_SRAM_UAPI. Otherwise you should have something like that 
in the .h, that you call all the time from the .c:

#ifdef CONFIG_FSL_85XX_SRAM_UAPI
static inline void set_cache_sram_dev(struct mpc85xx_cache_sram *sram, 
struct device *dev)
{
	sram->dev = dev;
}
#else
static inline void set_cache_sram_dev(struct mpc85xx_cache_sram *sram, 
struct device *dev) { }
#endif
