Missing a Co-developed-by for Nick?

Isn't this basically all information that we get anyway in sysfs based
on what gets put into the DT, except printed out once per CPU at
boottime?
If there's reason to keep it, please do as suggested by Ben and cut down
the number of lines emitted. Look at the ccache one for comparison:
	static void ccache_config_read(void)
	{
		u32 cfg;
	
		cfg = readl(ccache_base + SIFIVE_CCACHE_CONFIG);
		pr_info("%llu banks, %llu ways, sets/bank=%llu, bytes/block=%llu\n",
			FIELD_GET(SIFIVE_CCACHE_CONFIG_BANK_MASK, cfg),
			FIELD_GET(SIFIVE_CCACHE_CONFIG_WAYS_MASK, cfg),
			BIT_ULL(FIELD_GET(SIFIVE_CCACHE_CONFIG_SETS_MASK, cfg)),
			BIT_ULL(FIELD_GET(SIFIVE_CCACHE_CONFIG_BLKS_MASK, cfg)));
	
		cfg = readl(ccache_base + SIFIVE_CCACHE_WAYENABLE);
		pr_info("Index of the largest way enabled: %u\n", cfg);
	}
It'd also be good to print the same things as the ccache, no?

Please pick a sensible ordering for variables. IDC if it is reverse xmas
tree, or sorting by types, but this just seems quite random..

I don't think this error message is going to be helpful in figuring out
where the problem is on a machine with many of the caches. More
information about *which* cache caused it would be good.
Also it is not grammatically correct, it should read something like
"Failed to find CPU node for cache@abc" or something along those lines.

early_err just returns ret. Why not just return the error directly?

Got some weird use of whitespace here & above, please remove the spaces.
