Hi Ard,

I would still prefer the cache maintenance be done independent
of capsules in case there is other memory ranges that need to
be flushed for other features.

The CacheMaintenanceLib for ARM has several services that are
not implemented and ASSERT().  I found some ARM documentation 
that says that caches can be flushed by looping through the 
indexes.  

http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.ddi0201d/ch03s03s05.html

I know you mentioned that there can be alternate MMU
implementations that may not work with that algorithm.  However
that could require a customized CacheMaintenanceLib.  Can you
provide the flush all using the documented algorithm and use that
instance for systems that are compatible with the documented algorithm.
Then, the flush all API can be used in ResetSystem() or SEC Phase
when the boot mode is warm reset.

Mike
