This doesn't look like a problem to invalidate the cache, but more like
writeback of old cachelines while the hardware owns the buffer. Can you
try the series "Phasing out direct usage of asm/mmu.h on ARM" and see if
this still happens there? If I'm correct this series should fix this
problem.

I'll send an updated version of this series in the evening, but you
should be able to correct the typo in cpsw.c yourself for testing. :)

Regards,
Lucas
