Subject: [PATCH 4/5] MIPS: CPS: Support broken HCI for multicluster

Some CM3.5 devices incorrectly report that hardware cache
initialization has completed, and also claim to support hardware cache
initialization when they don't actually do so. This commit fixes this
issue by retrieving the correct information from the device tree and
allowing the system to bypass the hardware cache initialization
step. Instead, it relies on manual operation. As a result, multi-user
support is now possible for these CPUs.
