That's a very good point, thanks!  I knew there must have been
a very good reason why I placed the L3 cache outside the CPUs
originally, in the commit 8612169a05c5 referenced below, but I
also somehow managed to forget that reason for a moment. :)

Let's drop this patch, and I'll submit another patch for the
RK3588 SoC dtsi files that moves the L3 cache outside the CPUs,
to reflect the physical topology better.
