System Cache Controller (Last Level Cache Controller/LLCC) does not have a cache-level associated with it as enforced by the already existing 'cache-controller' node name, so add system-cache-controller to the list of generic node names as decided on the lkml in [1][2] and already being used in the dts for sometime now.

Right, but why would others use this over cache-controller? This is supposed to be used only for last level cache controllers where there is no cache-level associated with it like in the system cache controller/LLCC found in QTI SoCs. Also you had acked the corresponding change in the DT binding for LLCC [1].
