I already have something which does a similar modification.  Here's
the existing commits in order (copy'n'pasted with gpm so whitespace
damaged):

    ARM: l2c: ux500: implement dummy write_sec method

    ux500 can't write to any of the secure registers on the L2C controllers,
    so provide a dummy handler which ignores all writes.

    ARM: l2c: fix register naming

    We have a mixture of different devices with different register layouts,
    but we group all the bits together in an opaque mess.  Split them out
    into those which are L2C-310 specific and ones which refer to earlier
    devices.  Provide full auxiliary control register definitions.

    ARM: l2c: ux500: don't try to change the L2 cache auxiliary control register

So the only difference between what you've ended up with is that I've
kept the l2x0_base stuff around and the legacy init.  If you want the
legacy init to be killed, I'd be more than happy to add another patch
on top of my existing series to do that.
