l2x0_init() is called from arch/arm/mach-imx/mm-imx3.c first and then
from arch/arm/mm/cache-l2x0.c
later.

Why do we need to call it twice?

Can't we just do:

 /*
@@ -105,14 +104,6 @@ static void __init imx3_init_l2x0(void)
 	} else {
 		pr_err("L2 cache: Cannot fix timing. Trying to continue without\n");
 	}
-
-	l2x0_base = ioremap(MX3x_L2CC_BASE_ADDR, 4096);
-	if (!l2x0_base) {
-		printk(KERN_ERR "remapping L2 cache area failed\n");
-		return;
-	}
-
-	l2x0_init(l2x0_base, 0x00030024, 0x00000000);
 #endif
 }

Understood now, actually l2x0_init() is only called in
arch/arm/mm/cache-l2x0.c for the dt case.

So all is fine with the current code.
