  To: devel; +Cc: Ard Biesheuvel, Sami Mujawar

Remove system level cache (SLC) entry from ACPI PPTT table. SLC on the
Neoverse reference design platforms is the memory side cache and so it
is removed from PPTT table.

The SLC cache in Neoverse reference design is not a processor resource, instead it is an interconnect resource. As PPTT is used to describe the processor topology and processor resources, it is better to remove the SLC cache from PPTT and the best place for SLC is HMAT/SRAT tables.
