 12description: |+
 13  ARM cores often have a separate L2C210/L2C220/L2C310 (also known as PL210/
 14  PL220/PL310 and variants) based level 2 cache controller. All these various
 15  implementations of the L2 cache controller have compatible programming
 16  models (Note 1). Some of the properties that are just prefixed "cache-*" are
 17  taken from section 3.7.3 of the Devicetree Specification which can be found
 18  at:
 19  https://www.devicetree.org/specifications/
 20
 21  Note 1: The description in this document doesn't apply to integrated L2
 22    cache controllers as found in e.g. Cortex-A15/A7/A57/A53. These
 23    integrated L2 controllers are assumed to be all preconfigured by
 24    early secure boot code. Thus no need to deal with their configuration
 25    in the kernel at all.
