The SCU functions are to:
* maintain data cache coherency between the Cortex-A9 processors
* initiate L2 AXI memory accesses
* arbitrate between Cortex-A9 processors requesting L2 accesses
* manage ACP accesses.

Note
 * The Cortex-A9 SCU does not support hardware management of coherency
of the instruction cache.
