This add a compatible for the Marvell Tauros3 cache controller which

How does the tauros3 cache differ from the other caches supported by the
l2x0 driver?
[added Gregory to Cc]
Good question. I cannot say at this time. I would have guessed that l2cc
on Armada 1500 and Armada 370/XP are more or less the same, as both use
Marvell's PJ4B CPU. Maybe, Gregory or Thomas can shed some light into
this.

Are we intending to handle this differently later?
Or is it 100% compatible with the pl210 or pl220? We could just require
an entry later in the compatible string list instead...
No public documentation, no clear answer.
Tauros3 isn't 100% compatible with any of the ARM l2cc above, it has
additional "features" or "bugs" - call it whatever you want.
I am not an l2cc expert, but basically I see two options:
a) use (possibly) wrong existing compatible in current mv88de3100.dtsi
now and fix later.
b) add tauros3 compatible now and add (possible) quirks/marvell-specific
properties later.
IMHO b) is very likely to happen as l2x0_of_init in patch 8/8 already
sets bits, I wasn't able to verify in public ARM l2cc docu.
But again, I am very open for suggestions here.
