Ok, I see. Let's give Amlogic some more time then. I think it's better
to merge other parts of the platform first when we can reasonably assume
that we don't have to change the binding any more.

It would be a shame to merge this now and then make it obsolete by
implementing PSCI but still having to carry around the original code
for compatibility reasons.
