[PATCH] powerpc: check cache coherency of kernel vs firmware

[Dale Farnsworth]

check_cache_coherency() verifies that the cache coherency setting of
the kernel (CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE) matches that left by the firmware,
as indicated by coherency-off device tree property.

New, improved!  Now with matching config var names.  Thanks Stephen.
