Documentation: arm: add cache DT bindings
On ARM systems the cache topology cannot be probed at runtime, in particular, it is impossible to probe which CPUs share a given cache level. Power management software requires this knowledge to implement optimized power down sequences, hence this patch adds a document that defines the DT cache bindings for ARM systems. The bindings are compliant with ePAPR (PowerPC bindings), even though most of the cache nodes properties requirements are overriden, because caches geometry for architected caches is probeable on ARM systems. This patch also adds properties that are specific to ARM architected caches to the existing ones defined in the ePAPR v1.1, as bindings extensions.
