We don't need to add/remove anything for PMSAv7 as that's already 
implemented...

For V7M we have something called CPUID Base Register, not MIDR - the 
layout looks the same though. That's the only one of the CPUID_X that we 
have, but it is never requested directly - only via read_cpuid_id (this 
is to support a hardcoded cpuid from kconfig) so what Uwe's got does 
work, though I agree that it'd be much nicer to implement the underlying 
function and have the accessor general for both AR and M.
