The "qcom,llcc-ecc" and "qcom,llcc-amon" bindings doesn't seem to be
used by the driver in patch 2, and it's not clear how they are intended
to be used, so I think they should go from the binding for now.

I don't think you need syscon and simple-mfd, and I think you can
simplify the binding to a single node like:

qcom,system-cache@1300000 {
compatible = "qcom,sdm845-llcc";
reg = <0x1300000 0x50000>;
#cache-slice-cells = <1>;
max-slices = <32>;
}

If ECC and AMON are option features, we can always add boolean
properties for those later, e.g. "has-ecc".

Thanks,
Mark.
