There is no such recommendation. There  is  only  a  comment  in  the
README  about  8xx/8260 systems (where D-cache cannot be enabled) and
those systems where the cache is user as storage for the initial data
(whereD-cache cannot be disabled).

Best regards,

There are two ways to write error-free programs. Only the  third  one
works.
