mem: Remove redundant is_top_level cache parameter
This patch takes the final step in removing the is_top_level parameter from the cache. With the recent changes to read requests and write invalidations, the parameter is no longer needed, and consequently removed. This also means that asymmetric cache hierarchies are now fully supported (and we are actually using them already with L1 caches, but no table-walker caches, connected to a shared L2).
