Flush the cache after reading of the U-Boot proper into SDRAM so that
it can be started.

This is needed on some platforms, e.g. MT76x8.

I failed to find the mail, but haven't we discussed moving this cache
flush to your arch before starting a binary?

I don't remember such an agreement. But I don't object in general.

I cannot see this being required or implemented for non-legacy images,
and it still seems wrong here.

Its pretty common when an OS image is loaded and booted, that the cache
is flushed before running code from it.

But I can rework this to add some empty weak function (I don't see an
easy better way) to do this platform specific image handling before its
booted. Or do you have a better idea on how to handle this?

Thanks,
Stefan
