Out of interest, what's this actually for? Is there something useful in
userspace that will lap this out of sysfs? If so, it would be great if those
people could take these patches for a spin.

Since you're using %x0, can you just make ccsidr a u32?

Also, we have icache_get_ccsidr in kernel/cpuinfo.c already, as well as
some parsing constants in asm/cachetype.h. Can you try to clean up some of
the duplication/needless split please? (moving this helper and the #defines
out would be a good start).

Will
