if the prototype is in include/common.h, then code may assume it exists.  if 
it doesn't exist for a particular cpu, then that cpu is broken and common code 
(which is what drivers/ is) should not be adding hacks to workaround broken 
cpus.  please add stubs to the cpu you're referring to and drop the 
DAVINCI_EMAC_DCACHE define.  or let whoever cares about that cpu add the 
defines, but still drop DAVINCI_EMAC_DCACHE.
