We have done one fix some days/weeks ago which is here.

(Feel free to ignore L2_PREFETCH config option)

There are 2 things there.
1. Extending macros in cache-l2x0.h which I believe can go to the mainline
(when we align with changes you have done in 49/75)
2. Set L2X0_AUX_CTRL_SHARE_OVERRIDE_EN_MASK bit  which is what vexpress did.
The reason was problem with gem driver with iperf testing.

Regarding your post about bits 19:17

Reset values are correctly setup by bootrom to 0x02060000
That's why we can even use full mask.
For current mainline code just like this
	l2x0_of_init(0x00000000, 0xffffffff);
and we will submit the code which change this to
	l2x0_of_init(0x00400000, 0xffffffff);

Please let me know if this is aligned with your goal what you want to reach.

Thanks,
Michal
