Elimination of cpu_l2cache_* functions

All,
I've been reviewing the use of the cpu_l2cache_* functions and found
that 1) they're missing from cpu_witch() and 2) they are always used
in conjunction with either cpu_idcache_* or cpu_dcache_*.
Since most CPU variants define them as null ops, isn't it better to
incorporate the functionality of cpu_l2cache_* in cpu_idcache_* and
cpu_dcache_* and eliminate them altogether?
Any objections to me removing cpu_l2cache_* and therefore changing
the semantics of cpu_idcache_* and cpu_dcahce_* to apply to all
relevant cache levels?
Thanks,
