That's one of my questions I had way back in some of the previous
discussions.  Did not get the answer.  I suspect there is a reason to
whether CDP is enabled or not and it is not just the type of the cache
bank itself.  If it is, then CDP makes no sense for us at all, actually
for anyone who has access to cache information and that would mean bad
design of that thing.  And that's not something I would expect from this
functionality.
