For ThunderX2 I got lots of errors in dmesg:
Found duplicate cache level/type unable to determine uniqueness

So I fixed "type" macros definitions (without shifting) and shift it 
here which fixes the issue. As you said, it can be pre-shifted as well.

Mostly it is about trade-off between code simplicity and redundancy, I 
personally prefer the former. It is not the critical issue though.

I believe this will improve code readability. Obviously, you can 
disagree with my suggestions.
