I was slightly worried that this would break the Calxeda implementation
with ARM_SMMU_OPT_SECURE_CFG_ACCESS, but actually these registers aren't
even aliased there so I think there's a bigger bug for them.

Anyway, given that their hardware has gone the way of the dodo, I'll take
the patch as-is unless you have any further comments?

Will
