I'd like to see a reasoning as to _why_ these should be in the DT.

While we have tag and data RAM latency information, those are hardware
properties that we cannot probe. I'm not so clear on the filter-ranges
property.

These bits seem to be configuration rather than a hardware description.
If there are some portions of this that we can describe with higher
level properties, I'd prefer to do that.

But primarily, the question to answer is do we need these, and if so do
they belong in the DT?

Some of the prefetch control regsiter bits are reserved, and the
prefetch offset may only take a subset of possible values. I wouldn't
want to poke the hardware without performing some sanity checking on
these values.

Similarly, all but the lower 2 bits are reserved...

Thanks,
