The cache size is sort of fake here, as we don't have any non-coherent mechanisms, but IIRC we wrote somewhere that it's recommended to have 64-byte cache lines in RISC-V implementations as software may assume that for performance reasons. Not really a strong reason, but I'd prefer to just make these match.
