For STiH416 SoC, the reset value of the AUX_CTRL register is 0x02000000.
So bits 19:17 = 0, whereas the expected value is bits 19:17 = 4.

IIRC, for the other STi SoCs, the reset value is the good one.

Note that on STi platforms, the kernel runs in Secure mode, so it can 
write this register directly, without having to issue SMC call.
