ok, for 3.10, let's do a quick fix, then i will ack haojian zhuang's:
[PATCH v2] ARM: prima2: fix incorrect panic usage

i had some discussion with Srinivas, and agreed with Srinivas about
moving these functions to callback of prima2 mach_desc. that will
avoid some redundant function calls for non-csr platforms. i'll make
it as cleanup in 3.11 then.
