abling the L2 without flushing it first can lead to the spin_lock operation becoming visible after the spin_unlock, causing any subsequent L2 maintenance to deadlock. This patch replaces the writel with a call to writel_relaxed in the disabling code and adds a flush before disabling in the control register, preventing livelock from occurring.
