Unless you specifically require this, say N for writeback mode.

+ This option should be selected by machines which have a L2x0
+ or PL310 cache controller, but where its use is optional.
+
+ The only effect of this option is to make CACHE_L2X0 and
+ related options available to the user for configuration.
+
+ Boards or SoCs which always require the cache controller
+ support to be present should select CACHE_L2X0 directly
+ instead of this option, thus preventing the user from
+ inadvertently configuring a broken kernel.
