| Isn't the "Smart" actually because it is shared with the integrated GPU as well? |

I think it's an unintentional typo made by Intel. The Core i5-6402P should have 'SmartCache' listed on its ARK page, but you know Intel has made a couple of mistakes in its ARK website. These mistakes manifest themselves as non-existent processors, or incorrect TDP values.
These are just some of the few that I've noticed over the years, so there might be more that I'm not aware of.

No, there is a dedicated L1, L2, and L3 cache for the integrated Gen9 GPU. A whitepaper seems to have covered this a long time ago, and I do suggest reading it if you have the time (page 16). |

I don't have the time, however I think it is too interesting to pass, so I'll read it anyways  Thanks. |

SmartCache is cache shared between cores; it has nothing to do with the integrated graphics. |
