[PATCH 1/2][UPDATE] of: base: add support to get the number of cache levels

From: Sudeep Holla
Date: Tue Jan 10 2017 - 07:00:34 EST


It is useful to have helper function just to get the number of cache
levels for a given logical cpu. This patch adds the support for the
same.

It will be used on ARM64 platform where the device tree provides the
information for the additional non-architected/transparent/external
last level caches that are not integrated with the processors.
