Thanks for your suggestions.
I see that if we include the standard 'cache' property here, it injects error's in other yaml's as reported here [1]
In plain txt format of this binding the standard "cache" property is mentioned to be also included along with soc specific compatible string.
Please correct me if I am wrong here:
So in order to retain the earlier description as Should have "sifive,<soc>-cache" and "cache", I excluded "cache" property from example
as I assumed it is implied for cacheinfo infrastructure to work properly.
I will retain the earlier description (from.txt) which was "sifive,fu540-c000-ccache" and "cache"

Ok. I will remove un-necessary description.
