You're also missing a soc-specific compatible here as far as I can tell,
as one of the other patches in this series specifically calls out the
JH8100 as where this cache controller is. AFAICT, "starlink-500" is the
name of the IP or of the coreplex - it's not the name of the SoC.

And I also suspect that a load of the values can be restricted to
specific values for that jh8100 compatible.
