Shouldn't you be able to derive these values from whether dma-coherent
is set. To put it another way, allowing setting both allows for lots of
broken combinations.

What unit? Seems to be beats from the example. I would suggest bytes
instead.

lowercase address.

Last I checked, AXI only has 4 cache bits.
