 You are looking at obsolete code -- unless you have specific conditions
to use an explicit caching attribute for KSEG0, you should set it like the
rest of the code does it, i.e.:

change_cp0_config(CONF_CM_CMASK, CONF_CM_DEFAULT);

To avoid surprises here and elsewhere, you should make sure
CONFIG_NONCOHERENT_IO is set appropriately, too.
