Currently we have a chassis type check that could be used for this, but it doesn't work reliably due to bug #218122, and is currently only used to set a mobile user agent header.

It would probably make more sense to enable or disable the cache based on total available RAM, rather than checking form factor, since there's not really any difference between a mobile phone with 3 GB RAM (Librem 5) and a desktop with 3 GB RAM. The performance hit if you run out of RAM is going to be bad either way.
