Unable to run run-time loaded code on ZedBoard

Pavel,

Sorry for the delay, but I tried your refined approach:

> and generally means less unrelated latencies to unrelated code/data
>
>  void rtems_cache_flush_multiple_data_lines( const void *, size_t );
>
>  void rtems_cache_invalidate_multiple_instruction_lines( const void *, size_t );

I cheated a little since I knew the addresses and lengths from the RTL
trace output ("rtl: loading: .text -> 0x213148 (88)"), but adding

  rtems_cache_invalidate_multiple_instruction_lines((void *)0x213148, 88);
  rtems_cache_flush_multiple_data_lines((void *)0x213148, 88);

before calling the loaded function resulted in the dl01 test running
successfully. At least for dl01, only the .text section needed
attention.

I also tried with the
rtems_cache_invalidate_multiple_instruction_lines call omitted, and it
still worked. However, leaving out the
rtems_cache_flush_multiple_data_lines call causes it to fail.

For reference, here is the full RTL trace output for the load:
