Unless I misunderstand the code in __l2c_init(), the mask is used to
specify the bits to preserve:
old_aux = aux = readl_relaxed(l2x0_base + L2X0_AUX_CTRL);
aux &= aux_mask;
aux |= aux_val;

if (old_aux != aux)
pr_warn("L2C: DT/platform modifies aux control register: 0x%08x -> 0x%08x\n",
old_aux, aux);

So the arm,ecc-disable property will have no effect. This probably also
applies to patch 2/4. The existing property *-disable code removes the
corresponding bit from the mask.

Jan
