I totally agree, L2 cache if it is an SSD, should be made a persistent cache. Many advantage of doing so as well
If you have a specific SSD as s a write cache you don't care about wear on the flash (may be it's an old drive), then you can speed up write operations in a HDD without risk of losing data when power outage occurs.

The main benefit of persistent cache is faster boot times - assuming of course that the FancyCache filesystem driver loads rather early...
