This patch adds a parameter to the BaseCache to enable a read-only cache, for example for the instruction cache, or table-walker cache (not for x86). A number of checks are put in place in the code to ensure a read-only cache does not end up with dirty data. A follow-on patch adds suitable read requests to allow a read-only cache to explicitly ask for clean data.
