[PATCH 1/2] [PPC 4xx] invalidate_l2cache_range() implementation for ppc44x

Hi,

Some comments below. In general this patch adds #ifdefs in common code,
that's normally frowned upon.

It would maybe be better to add a new call to ppc_machdeps and call it
if set.

PLease don't add includes to the middle of a file.

The whole function above has bad whitespace (spaces instead of tabs)

The above looks highly system dependent to me. Should maybe be a part
of the cache info structures instead, and filled in from the device tree?
