This doesn't apply when based on mvebu/cleanup because of:
49ed97f ARM: Orion: Remove redundant init_dma_coherent_pool_size()
I tried hacking it up to put it in mvebu/soc-internal_regs for a few
rounds of testing in linux-next during review, however, I'd prefer you
rebase this on top of mvebu/cleanup.
My version ended up looking like:
