No reason as far as I can see, the creation of this patch predates the
generic cacheinfo sysfs infrastructure.

The patch itself doesn't add cache information to cpuinfo though,
only corrects a bug in the information that is already there.

We should look into exposing the info in the generic cache info sysfs
and potentially removing the information from cpuinfo.
