[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/8] arm926ej-s: Invalidate instruction cache in flush_cache

If U-Boot is loaded from RAM and the OS is loaded into an overlapping
region, the instruction cache is not coherent when that OS is started.
We must therefore invalidate the instruction cache in addition to
cleaning the data cache.
