[PATCH 1/2] ARM: dts: meson8b: add more L2 cache settings

Amlogic's vendor kernel prints these PL310 L2 cache controller settings
during boot:
  8 ways, 2048 sets, CACHE_ID 0x4100a0c9,  Cache size: 524288 B
  AUX_CTRL 0x7ec60001, PERFETCH_CTRL 0x75000007, POWER_CTRL  0x00000000
  TAG_LATENCY 0x00000111, DATA_LATENCY 0x00000222

Add the "prefetch-data", "prefetch-instr" and "arm,shared-override"
properties to get the same L2 cache controller configuration as the
vendor kernel.
Four differences still remain:
- L310_AUX_CTRL_EARLY_BRESP is enabled by the vendor kernel, however
  this is only supported on Cortex-A9 cores (Meson8b has Cortex-A5 cores
  though)
- L310_AUX_CTRL_NS_INT_CTRL is currently not supported by the cache-l2x0
  driver
- bit 23 is set by the vendor kernel, but this is defined in cache-l2x0.h
- L310_AUX_CTRL_FULL_LINE_ZERO is enabled by the vendor kernel which is
  also only supported on Cortex-A9 cores
