[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2 V3] arm926: Flush the data cache before disabling it

The current implementation invalidates the cache instead of flushing
it. This causes problems on platforms where the spl/u-boot is already
loaded to the RAM, with caches enabled by a first stage bootloader.
The V bit of the cp15's control register c1 is set to the value of
VINITHI on reset. Do not clear this bit by default, as there are SOC's
with no valid memory region at 0x0.
Also fix the comments to match code.

Changes since V2
* Added code to invalidate I cache, based on review comment by Aneesh.
* Fixed comments to match the code.
Changes since V1
* Added arm926 keyword to the subject line
* Removed the superfluous setting of r0.
* Fixed the comment to reflect the fact that V is not being cleared
