Wrong order here. This should be last.

If a single value, then you can drop 'items'.

This needs to have a $ref to a type schema. (Under an 'allOf' list
with this enum)

Also don't need items here if a single value.

What Linux does isn't relevant to the binding.

Not an array.

Not an array. Surely you can define either the set of possible values
or min/max values. Same comment on the rest of the cache props.

Are the cache attributes really not discoverable?

'dependencies' can express this for you. We do need a core schema for
all these to define the type and maybe dependencies can be there.

No 'reg', so should not have a unit-address.

You don't need this as we just defined it above.

Not documented.

Don't show status in examples.
