I wanted to fix l1/l2's inconsistent bugs together originally, so I named it
"compat-cache". But later I thought it's too ugly to adding much l1/l2's
compatible macros, so I given up this idea. Instead, rename it to 
"l3-cache-shared".

Thanks for your good suggestion. I will choose "l3-cache-enabled" in the v5.
