+ * Name: up_coherent_dcache
+ *
+ * Description:
+ *   Ensure that the I and D caches are coherent within specified region
+ *   by cleaning the D cache (i.e., flushing the D cache contents to memory
+ *   and invalidating the I cache. This is typically used when code has been
+ *   written to a memory region, and will be executed.
+ *
+ * Input Parameters:
+ *   addr - virtual start address of region
+ *   len  - Size of the address region in bytes
+ *
+ * Returned Value:
+ *   None
+ *
