Hi Tony,
No -- we don't really need these here, but we thought that
it would be an easy way for the user to set them -- esp the
CACHE_LIMIT. We can actually remove themi, since it's not
going to change very often, and add it to plat data later.
I'll revise the patch. BTW, Are you going to be the one to
merge this code?
