Right, exynos_firmware_init() is called too early, before ioremap() is
available, so there is no good place to put this in firmware code. So,
let's keep this as is for now and eventually move it to firmware if
needed and/or a proper method of initialization is available.

IMHO this shouldn't produce any messages at this stage. Just whenever
either of addresses is actually needed and is not initialized a message
should be printed.

This patch is already changing surroundings of this code, so I'd say it
should do it the right way from the start.
