soc: sifive: shunt ccache driver to drivers/cache

Move the ccache driver over to drivers/cache, out of the drivers/soc
dumping ground, to this new collection point for cache controller
drivers.

cache: Add L2 cache management for Andes AX45MP RISC-V core

I/O Coherence Port (IOCP) provides an AXI interface for connecting
external non-caching masters, such as DMA controllers. The accesses
from IOCP are coherent with D-Caches and L2 Cache.

IOCP is a specification option and is disabled on the Renesas RZ/Five
SoC due to this reason IP blocks using DMA will fail.

The Andes AX45MP core has a Programmable Physical Memory Attributes (PMA)
block that allows dynamic adjustment of memory attributes in the runtime.
It contains a configurable amount of PMA entries implemented as CSR
registers to control the attributes of memory locations in interest.
Below are the memory attributes supported:
* Device, Non-bufferable
* Device, bufferable
* Memory, Non-cacheable, Non-bufferable
* Memory, Non-cacheable, Bufferable
* Memory, Write-back, No-allocate
* Memory, Write-back, Read-allocate
* Memory, Write-back, Write-allocate
* Memory, Write-back, Read and Write-allocate

More info about PMA (section 10.3):

As a workaround for SoCs with IOCP disabled CMO needs to be handled by
software. Firstly OpenSBI configures the memory region as
"Memory, Non-cacheable, Bufferable" and passes this region as a global
shared dma pool as a DT node. With DMA_GLOBAL_POOL enabled all DMA
allocations happen from this region and synchronization callbacks are
implemented to synchronize when doing DMA transactions.

Example PMA region passes as a DT node from OpenSBI:
reserved-memory {
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;
ranges;

pma_resv0@58000000 {
compatible = "shared-dma-pool";
reg = <0x0 0x58000000 0x0 0x08000000>;
no-map;
linux,dma-default;
};
};
