Is it correct to use ANY_CACHE as the NA value? The LVLNUM_* enum begins at 1, so it looks like this should be set to 0 instead (like in HOPS_*).

Thanks for addressing my previous comment about filling both mem_lvl and mem_lvl_num.
I wonder if it's also worth updating for the non-Neoverse cores as well while we're at it. I'll let Leo decide since this patchset is only focused on Neoverse.
Aside from these comments, this change also looks good to me. Thanks for catching the things I missed in my previous review.
