I think the code is almost ok, since it's only active when there is
a "fsl,imx6q-src" device node. However, the WARN_ON must be removed
if we want this to work well on a multi-soc kernel.
The more important point is to ensure that src_base is not being used
on other SoCs, but that's probably covered as well.
