FWIW, this also seems to be wrong: on s390 we only expose cpu private
caches via sysfs. Shared caches are not exposed (and simply saying they are
system wide would be wrong).
Please have a look at these two commits which should describe why things
are as they are on s390:

881730ad365130f64b5c70c40904b04eb3b79de3
"s390/cache: expose cpu cache topology via sysfs"

"s390/cache: add cpu cache information to /proc/cpuinfo"
