I assume L3 is outer non-architected system cache.

NACK for this:
1. We don't have any DT binding for the "type" 2. Even if we had, we will never have such a binding that magical returns the enum used in Linux implementation. That's not how DT bindings are designed.
Please refer ePAPR or Devicetree Specification Release 0.1 from devicetree.org, we have cache-unified boolean for type.
Let me know if the below patch works for you, I will submit it preferably with your tested-by.
