You're talking about the data structures which describe what quirks to
apply for the ux500 parts, rather than the actual quirks themselves.
That's not a particularly clever thing to do because it separates out
the selection of the works from the rest of the driver, which means
simply searching for the flags to find out what's applied for what has
to span several files.
