I cannot find this patch in v6, nothing in changelog explaining what
happened here.

Are these names - cm3, l2, hci - obvious and known in MIPS? HCI usually
means something else - see drivers/bluetooth/ and drivers/nfc/

Is this property applicable for all MIPS vendors? There is no vendor
prefix here, so this is generic for this architecture, right?
