I'm not familiar with all options for L2 caching. I was just being cautious
to not exclude the possibility that there could be some variation within
the SAMA5D3 series (I'm on SAMA5D31) or with an external L2 cache or
something such. If there's simply no possible way to have an L2 cache on
any SAMA5D3, feel free to edit that "At least not always" out while you
commit.
