Hmm, I didn't think too much about this, so this order is just whatever
first came to my mind, probably because I'm used to xxx_write(ctx, val,
reg) accessors found in many drivers.

Anyway, l2c_write_sec() in arm/mm/cache-l2x0.c, which calls
outer_cache.write_sec(), already uses (val, base, reg) convention, so
probably this one would be most suitable. I'll change in v2.

Best regards,
Tomasz
