Uh, that's not quite what I was suggesting. Rather than using that one
in isolation, you can do the following in your dt:
"starfive,jh7110-ccache", "sifive,fu740-c000-ccache"

And then in the driver we need to make no changes - unless down the line
we find some sort of issue that requires special handling etc. There's
no harm in having a "starfive,jh7110-ccache" IMO.

Thanks,
Conor.
