Because previously it was optional unless DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS was enabled.

This looks right, and I tested it too so have an ack if you want it:

Acked-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>


If you can CC linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org in future on powerpc patches I'll
notice them quicker, I know I was CC'ed on this but because it also went to
LKML it got put in my lkml folder.
