Subject[PATCH 1/2] staging/vc04_services: initialize cache line size properly
Message-ID<tglnX-1pB-11@gated-at.bofh.it>
While debugging another problem I noticed that g_cache_line_size gets set
to sizeof(CACHE_LINE_SIZE), which is sizeof(int) or 4, while presumably
CACHE_LINE_SIZE (e.g. 32) was meant.

This initializes it the way it was meant.

Hi Arnd,

I submitted a change which is in Linux-next now that makes the whole
CACHE_LINE_SIZE macro meaningless.  It now always reads the size from
the DT and errors out with -ENODEV if the property is missing.

I was going to submit a change to delete the macro completely, just
never got to it.
