Not sure this binding (cache node) belongs in cpus.txt

I am working on defining cache bindings for ARM within the C-state
standardization effort:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-December/215543.html

It is a bit vague, can't we just follow the ePAPR compatible definition ?
See posting above.

"hierarchy". I have a problem with the cache level definition, and in
particular the numbering, ie what the level number represents. If we
mean the cache level seen through the CLIDR and co., it is hard to use
it for shared caches since the level seen by different CPUs can actually
be different, or put it differently the level number might not be unique for
a shared cache. I need to think about a proper way to sort this out.
