I'm not sure. I was in impression from that comment that disabling MMU
is needed only for A38x. But runtime detection of the board was not
possible until registers are relocated to the new location, so code
disabling MMU was called always.

So, this change should be tested on some AXP, A370 or A375 board to
verify that everything is working correctly.

I tested it only on A385 Turris Omnia.
