Now my questions are:
Is there anything else to do for getting the L3 cache working?
How can i check if the L3 is enabled? E.g. is there a benchmark program
which accounts for cache settings?
   

lmbench has testcases for memory latency testing.
 

Thank you for the hint, i tested it and the results are deflating:
Most values are the same, but the communication bandwidths are worse 
with the L3 cache enabled? Therefore i think that my L3CR settings are 
wrong.
