btw, your $subject should be "dt-bindings: cache: ...." rather than
"riscv: sifive".

There's extra spaces in these lines for some reason.

I'm pretty sure that I pointed out last time around that you need to add
something like in the ccache driver:

select:
properties:
compatible:
contains:
enum:
- sifive,ccache0
- sifive,fu540-c000-ccache
- sifive,fu740-c000-ccache

otherwise this binding will be used for anything containing "cache" in
the dt-binding.
For this binding, I think that the following is sufficient:

select:
properties:
compatible:
contains:
const: sifive,pl2cache1

You omitted the pl2cache0 from here, that needs to come back! You'll end
up with 2 items entries.
Either way, I can't take this binding without a soc-specific compatible,
per sifive-blocks-ip-versioning.txt..

Thanks,
Conor.
