Good that I included this in -next, I had not received any feedback from
RISC-V even after 5 iterations. I also see this DTS is very odd. It also
states CPU0 doesn't have L1-D$ while the other 4 CPUs have L1-D$. Is that
a mistake or is it the reality ? Another breakage in userspace cacheinfo
sysfs entry of cpu0 has both I$ and D$.
